The last official match between the clubs took place on October 21, 2023, at Chelsea's home ground and ended with a score of 2-2

Arsenal

In the last round, “Arsenal” ended a three-match winless streak by defeating “Wolverhampton” 2-0 away. Prior to this, the “Gunners” struggled against “Bayern” in the Champions League quarterfinals (2-2 and 0-1) and suffered a home defeat to “Aston Villa” in the Premier League (0-2). In the league table, the Londoners currently occupy the provisional first place, narrowly ahead of “Liverpool” on additional indicators and two points ahead of “Manchester City.” However, “City” has a game in hand. At the Emirates Stadium, Mikel Arteta’s team has lost only two matches in the Premier League season, winning 12. Their defense at home deserves special mention, having conceded just 15 goals in 16 games. Notable among the absences is defender Jurrien Timber, who has been sidelined due to injury for some time.

Chelsea

Chelsea lost their last hope of winning a trophy this season during the week. In the FA Cup semifinal at Wembley, the “aristocrats” fell to “Manchester City” with a minimal score of 0-1, conceding a goal towards the end of the game. This ended their streak of eight matches without defeat in all competitions. In the Premier League, Mauricio Pochettino’s proteges currently sit in ninth place. However, a victory today would allow them to catch up with “Newcastle” and “Manchester United” in terms of points, who share the sixth spot. In the last round, “Chelsea” thrashed “Fulham” 6-0 at home. Four goals in that match were scored by Cole Palmer, who caught up with Holland in the race for top scorer with 20 goals each. It’s worth noting that in the Premier League, “Chelsea” is currently on an unbeaten four-match streak away from home. Furthermore, the team hasn’t lost in the country’s championship for eight matches. Due to injuries, defenders Levi Colwill and Reece James, as well as midfielders Romeo Lavia and Leslie Ugochukwu, will be unable to take the field today. Pochettino acknowledges that the team has little time to recover after the cup battle.

Prediction

Chelsea lost to "Manchester City" in the FA Cup semifinals, but they showed a decent performance and overall, the "aristocrats" are now ready to compete evenly with the Premier League leaders, as evidenced by their unbeaten streak of eight matches. "Arsenal" occasionally faces difficulties and doesn't always capitalize on their attacking chances. In the first round, the opponents couldn't determine the stronger side, so we expect a closely contested match today. Considering the odds, we recommend betting on the underdog. Our prediction - "Chelsea" to win with an Asian handicap (+1) at odds of 2.05. In the two previous head-to-head clashes, "Arsenal" and "Chelsea" exchanged goals. Both London teams have strong attacks, so today we can expect them to find the back of the net against each other. Second bet - Both teams to score at odds of 1.61. Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 2.05. Promo code for registration - ODDS2WIN.
