In the middle of an overcrowded struggle for the qualification of the Champions League, two competitors with thin attack units on Sunday came to the Emirates Stadium in the London London London team.
The Gunners sit second place in the Premier League, but have fallen significantly behind the leaders Liverpool and probably left the title race out of reach. Instead, they have to concentrate on warding them behind in the race for the UCL qualification, with the third-placed Nottingham Forest directly on their cocks.
A victory for Chelsea would halve her six-point deficit to Arsenal.
After the blues saw their own title on vacation during the holidays, they slowly crumbled back into the ranking and moved back to the upper level.
The Premier League will certainly secure a qualification situation for the fifth champions -League this season. But with full five clubs within five points to Chelsea, it will be a weekly task for Enzo Maresca's men.

Arsenal against Chelsea forecast, chances of winning
- Moneyline slim: Draw (+270 on Draftkings)
- Score forecast: Arsenal 1-1 Chelsea
- Best bet: Chelsea Double Chance (-105 on Draftkings)
While you managed to drive the results in a reasonable clip, there are a number of signs that have started to fade arsenal when the season dampens to a degree.
The Gunners have only won once in the last five games in all competitions, and even this only victory was very exaggerated by a nightmare performance by the opposition goalkeeper. Arsenal went to the Netherlands and hit PSV 7-1, but this rush came only 15 shots worth 1.91 XG.
There is a significant value for a Chelsea result here, and although it is much to be expected that an equally incorrect side will come to the Emirates and is victorious, they were able to catch arsenal absolutely and deepen the skid of the late season.

Arsenal against Chelsea Best bet
- Choose: Under 2.5 total goals
- Opportunities: -115 (Draftkings)
Both teams have tried to create opportunities this season because their injuries have limited their attack potential.
Arsenal's explosion against PSV against PSV has already been exposed as a fluke, and they have only scored three goals in the last four Premier League games since the 5-1 win against Manchester City.
Chelsea has now found no one who affects Nico Jackson's shoes because Christopher Nkunku Wild was not convincing. The blues were largely limited in both legs against Copenhagen in their latest Knockout Matchup of the Conference League and were kept at home between these two games by Leicester City.
Unfortunately, the market was more than tasty, but in this piece there is still a certain value, since both sides have tried to consistently score goals.
Arsenal against Chelsea prop bet
Since Arsenal's first choice that attacks players who fall like flies, Martin Odegaard's shoulders were increasingly laid to create the possibilities for the Gunners in order to achieve mixed results.
While Arsenal's attack performance has suffered as a whole, the underlying figures show that Odegaard deserves at least more end product. Since his last material contribution in the Premier League campaign, a goal against City, Odegaard has made nine shots and supported 10 others without profit, since a combined 2.12 XG+XA is on the wayside.
Odegaard was particularly unhappy on the creative side, and its 1.66 XA on only 10 key passes (a wonderful 0.16 xa per shotgun assistant) that are unfulfilled. If he can find someone – everyone – to end their chances, Odegaard can benefit. As with the under, this selection is not associated with really exceptional value, but still offers a chance.
