Chelsea make the short trip across London to face Arsenal in the Premier League on Boxing Day at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners are now without a win in 10 Premier League games and sit right down in 15th place in the league table with just 14 points to their name. Their last league win came back on October 4 when they won 2-1 at home to Sheffield United. The Gunners have their worst record at this stage of a campaign since 1974/75 and the players look stale and uninspired. Mikel Arteta has work to do.
Chelsea have won exactly half of their 14 league games this season and are in fifth place in the Premier League table. Their away form has not been great, with Frank Lampard’s Blues wining just three of their last seven league games on the road. They head into this game on the back of a 3-0 home win against West Ham United having lost their previous two league matches, away at Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton.
These two teams have met on 56 previous occasions in the Premier League in total, with Arsenal winning 20 of those matches and Chelsea 19. The Gunners have beaten the west Londoners 13 times on home soil, while Chelsea have six away Premier League wins to their credit. Chelsea’s attack averages 2.07 goals per game in the Premier League this season, while Arsenal concede an average of 1.29. The Gunners average a very measly 0.86 goals per game, while the Blues have conceded an average of one goal per game.
Our featured tip for this game comes from Unibet, who are offering odds of 14/5 on Chelsea to win and both teams to score. We suspect that Arsenal will make a strong start to the game but will in the end to succumb to the visitors’ potent attack.
