⚽ Chelsea vs. Arsenal preview & score prediction

The blockbuster clash at Stamford Bridge has the potential to be the match of the season.

Premier League leaders Arsenal have surged into first place both domestically and in the Champions League with convincing performances against Tottenham and Bayern Munich, respectively.

Although few have been able to solve Arsenal this season, I’m backing second-placed Chelsea to crack the code and derail the Gunners’ momentum with a win or draw that solidifies their place in the title race.

Chelsea out to prove a point

Chelsea are fresh off their biggest win of the season after beating Barcelona 3-0 at home in the Champions League.

It was an all-around impressive performance, one that the Blues will need to possibly exceed to upset an Arsenal team that’s been looking unbeatable lately.

But there's one area of concern for Arsenal, as the Gunners continue to be without injured talisman Gabriel. Though the defender’s absence hasn’t impacted the team yet, missing him combined with the expected return of Cole Palmer presents an enticing opportunity to bet on Chelsea upsetting their London rivals.

A winning $10 bet on Chelsea to win or draw nets a profit of $6.15.

Score prediction: Chelsea 2, Arsenal 1


🆚 Chelsea vs. Arsenal matchup to watch

Estevao vs. David Raya

Whether he starts or comes off the bench, it’s probable that Chelsea’s glimmering youngster Estevao will play a part in Sunday’s marquee meeting with Arsenal.

The 18-year-old Brazilian has been sensational while scoring five goals in all competitions, including one in Chelsea’s win over Barcelona on Tuesday. 

But head coach Enzo Maresca may opt to deploy him off the bench in the second half instead of starting him Sunday, hoping Arsenal could struggle to contain Estevao’s pace and fearless ball carrying late in the game.

Either way, I expect the talented winger will test Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya and register Over 0.5 shots on target.

Best prop bet: Estevao Over 0.5 shots on target (-120 via DraftKings)
