This London derby caps a busy weekend of Premier League action as leaders Arsenal host Chelsea at the Emirates, aiming to restore their five-point cushion after City crept closer with a win over Leeds on Saturday, despite Erling Haaland’s absence. Arsenal had steadied their season after a wobble by pushing rivals Tottenham further into relegation worries in their previous match.
Now they face a Chelsea side that hasn’t beaten Arsenal in any competition since August 2021, a run stretching to 10 matches with seven defeats, including both legs of their Carabao Cup semi-final. Liam Rosenior’s approach in last month’s 1-0 loss at N5 stirred debate, and he has publicly questioned his team as their top-four hopes suffered from frustrating draws with Leeds and Burnley amid ongoing disciplinary issues.
Mikel Arteta has Bukayo Saka available after an injury scare against Spurs, while Reece James can feature for Chelsea, who still dip into Estevao’s absence. Follow Arsenal vs Chelsea live below!
