Match preview
The Premier League will feature a strong London derby this weekend as Chelsea take on Mikel Arteta’s impressive Arsenal side in a decisive match at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Arsenal are now at the top of the Premier League table, surpassing expectations so far this season. The Gunners have beaten Nottingham Forest 5-0 in their last league game and expect a similar result this weekend.
Chelsea, on the other hand, are currently in 6th place and have not been stable this season. The Blues collapsed last week at Brighton & Hove as he lost 4-1 to Albion and will have to make up for it in this match.
Arsenal have continued their impressive form this season and are well positioned to finish in the top four. The Gunners want to take on Manchester City for money this season and could improve their title qualification this weekend.
Chelsea are currently in bad form and have yet to find consistent form under Graham Potter. Arsenal are the better team at the moment and have the upper hand in this game.
