Chelsea vs Arsenal London Betting Prediction

The Gunners are currently in 2nd place with nine less points than their London rivals. Even though Arsène Wenger is by far the more experienced of the two coaches, it’s the newcomer – Antonio Conte – who is making an impact on this Premier League edition.
Chelsea is going through a fantastic run on the EPL with 15 victories over the last 16 games. However, the Blues already allowed three defeats in this competition, with one of those against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium by 0 – 3.

Chelsea vs Arsenal London – The Best Defense Against the Second Best Offense

Since this is a very important match for both teams, we should see them approaching this game with extreme caution. Even though Chelsea only allowed an average of 0.375 goals per game in their last 16 encounters, it’s unlikely to see the Blues ending this derby with a clean sheet.
Arsenal presents the 2nd best attack in the Premier League with 50 goals already and as it happened in their previous game, the Gunners should also score in this game.
Granit Xhaka is the only absence on Arsenal’s side due to suspension while Chelsea should present their best team. Taking a look now to their previous encounters, only 1 of their last 10 ended with goals from both sides.

Despite this trend, the sportsbooks expect a high scoring affair with the Both Teams to Score market @1.70. Even though we expect both teams to score in this game, it’s impossible for us to back this line due to the low price.

Both teams were involved in midweek games for the EPL. Chelsea was very close from leaving Anfield Road with a triumph, however, Diego Costa couldn’t convert a penalty to undo the 1-1 tie. On the other hand, Arsenal suffered a disappointing defeat at home against Watford by 1-2.
