Arsenal can't get it done when it matters most.
In 01-04 Arsenal went 7 wins and 3 draws against Chelsea. But after that the tide has turned, Chelsea went 9-2-4 dropping only two against the goons. The last three have been beat downs with the score of 1-2,1-4,0-3 respectively, all came at Emirates stadium.
Chelsea 3-0 SU against other big four
Arsenal 1-2 SU against other big four
Arsenal has kept 3 away clean sheets this season, against villa, bolton and fulham, while Chelsea hasn't failed to score at home yet. And you know that after that midweek draw they'll be more than ready to go to regain that #1 once again.
The Goons are in their 2nd contest of their 3 straight games against other big four opponents (facing liverpool next) and is currently 6 pts behind Chelsea. The deficits will be 9 if they lose tomorrow, which is pretty much a goodbye kiss for the title. They have to win tomorrow to have any chance at it (mathematically they're not out but counting on United and Chelsea to consistently dropping pts with roughly 10 matches to go is a daydream).
Yup, they'll have to attack against Chelsea and the game will be more open. I expect strong D and lightning textbook counterattack from Chelsea.
No surprises here. Chelsea will overpower the youthful Goons, whose spirits were down after a 1-3 defeat at home to MU last week, and will run away with this one.
