Arsenal vs Chelsea: Preview

Arsenal are continuing from where they left off in the Premier League, posting two from two so far and are yet to concede a solitary goal this season.

Last weekend's hard-fought 1-0 win against Aston Villa saw Christos Tzolis hauled off at half-time after picking up a booking and looking visibly frustrated with Matty Cash.

Whether or not the Greek international will start again remains to be seen, with Arteta not boasting as many options as he previously had following the departure of Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli this summer.

Viktor Gyokeres has had to settle for a place on the bench with Kai Havertz getting the nod so far in attack. The German has looked good after a lengthy lay-off with injury in 2025/26.

Chelsea’s transfer window came to a close with Enzo Fernandez leaving for Manchester City, while their late pursuits of Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara and Roma’s Manu Kone ultimately ended empty-handed.

It’s the front three of Morgan Rogers, Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro who have everyone talking, with the trio combining impressively in the Blues’ opening two games.

Xabi Alonso appears set to stick with his three-at-the-back system for now and will hope his side can keep Arsenal’s wealth of attacking talent at bay in Sunday’s kick-off.

Jordan Henderson (wrist) and Marco Palestra (unspecified) remain out of contention with individual injury problems.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Arsenal 2-2 Chelsea

The Gunners have looked solid as a rock, but Chelsea's attack will have to be carefully dealt with. We see a draw.
