Both sides have been different in terms of their style of play this season as compared to their form coming from last season. The Blues brought in Enzo Maresca as a replacement for Mauricio Pochettino who has been remarkable since he arrived at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are coming into the game having won just one of their last three Premier League games while Arsenal are without a victory in their last three league games. However, the Blues enjoyed a splendid night in Europe with a triumphant victory over FC Noah but it was a case of another defeat for the Gunners as they were beaten by Inter Milan.
Team News ( Chelsea vs Arsenal)
Cole Palmer is expected to return after his recent injury against Manchester United.
Declan Rice is a doubt for Arsenal, along with Kai Havertz. Martin Odegaard is expected to gets some minutes after he resumed training last week. Raheem Sterling cannot play against his parent club so he will sit this one out.
Head to head
Chelsea wins: 66

Chelsea have shown that they can step up against big teams but results have not gone their way so far and with Arsenal’s poor run of form, we expect it to continue at Stamford Bridge.
Result:
Chelsea 2-1 Arsenal
Time:
5:30 PM (WAT)
