Arsenal have won both league games so far: 3-0 over Coventry City to open the season, then 1-0 at Villa Park, Bukayo Saka scoring the only goal on 31 August. They also beat Manchester City 3-0 in the Community Shield before a ball had been kicked competitively — three wins, three clean sheets.
Chelsea have taken the same six points from their first two matches, in far more open fashion. Xabi Alonso's first game in charge was a 3-2 win away at Fulham, followed by a 4-3 home win over Brighton on 30 August, with Roméo Lavia, Pedro Neto, João Pedro and Cole Palmer all on the scoresheet.
Across those two matches Chelsea have scored seven and conceded five, and Alonso is still waiting for his first clean sheet in charge. Bet365 have Over 2.5 Goals at 8/11 for Sunday.
Arteta is without both first-choice centre-backs. William Saliba is out long-term with a back injury, with no return expected before winter. Jurrien Timber is also confirmed out, still working his way back from a groin problem that needed summer surgery. No Arsenal players are suspended.
Chelsea's situation is less settled. Jordan Henderson is expected to miss out after wrist surgery, with no return date yet given. Marco Palestra remains sidelined with no clear timeline. Moisés Caicedo is a doubt — Alonso said this week he was being cautious with him and the club would assess him closer to the game.
Arsenal have won three of the last five meetings between these two sides, with one draw, and their most recent league meeting also went their way, 2-1 at the Emirates back in March.
Arsenal's main defensive concern is the centre-back pairing. Losing Saliba and Timber together is a real problem against a Chelsea front line that already has Palmer and João Pedro among the goals this season.
Chelsea's issue is in midfield. If Caicedo doesn't recover in time, Alonso's side could find it harder to control the game against Arsenal's own pairing of Declan Rice and Martín Zubimendi, which may limit the service that reaches Palmer and João Pedro further forward.
Whoever wins the midfield battle probably wins the afternoon.
Arsenal go in as favourites. Chelsea's five goals conceded in two matches suggest chances for Arsenal at one end, while their seven goals scored are the bigger concern for a back line missing both first-choice centre-backs.
Prediction: Arsenal 2-1 Chelsea
| Player | Team | Odds |
|---|---|---|
| Viktor Gyökeres | Arsenal | 13/10 |
| Bukayo Saka | Arsenal | 15/8 |
| João Pedro | Chelsea | 5/2 |
| Cole Palmer | Chelsea | 13/5 |
Gyökeres is the shortest price of the players listed here. Palmer was among the scorers against Brighton last time out.
