Arsenal vs Chelsea — Tips & Analysis

Arsenal -0.75: Arsenal have owned this matchup and they are much the stronger side at home. They have won 12 of the last 20 meetings with Chelsea. At the Emirates they have won 6 of their last 9, scoring more than a goal a game and letting in well under a goal. Across their last 17 games Arsenal have not lost by 2 or more goals once. Chelsea are dangerous going forward and have scored seven in their last two league games, a 4-3 over Brighton and a 3-2 at Fulham. Away from home they are a different team. Chelsea have won once in their last 5 away games and let in more than 2 goals a game on those trips. Arsenal will see plenty of the ball and should get the first goal. A clean sheet is asking a lot, with William Saliba out for months and Timber likely to miss out too. A 2-1 Arsenal win looks the finish, and that keeps us on the right side. The warning is clear. All five of the last meetings finished within a single goal, and one was a 1-1 tie, so Chelsea only need a point to spoil this. Their forwards are in good form and Arsenal's back line is patched up. We are still with Arsenal to win this.
