Less than a month away from the tour match, Chelsea and Arsenal meet again in the derby, where the tuners have a rematch to take after the December defeat.
Chelsea
◾️He still holds his 4th position in the Premier League, with 39 points.
◾️Despite this performance, he has so far collected no less than 8 defeats, but also 12 wins and 3 draws.
◾️He has 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats in the last 5 rounds, losing the last game, at the last stage, in the away match, with Newcastle, scoring 1: 0.
◾️Marcos Alonso, Van Ginkel, Loftus-Cheek and Pulisic are all injured, the worst being the American, who will return in a few weeks.
Arsenal

◾️Comes after 2 draws in a row, reaching the record of draws, 11 in 23 rounds.
◾️The last draw came on its own, with Sheffield United, a match in which it seemed to escape in the winner after the goal scored by Martinelli in the 45th minute, the visiting team equalizing in the 83rd minute. Curriz ◾️Palace, while Tierney, Chambers and Kolasinac are injured.

Football Prediction of the Day Chelsea vs Arsenal
I believe in another spectacular derby between the two London teams, with at least 3 goals scored, as otherwise there have been 4 of the previous 5 games, including the championship round match.
At the same time, I think that this time Arsenal has a chance to achieve a positive result, having more fantasy in the last 30 meters than the lineup coached by Frank Lampard, even if he rarely scores more than 1 goal.
3 of the last 5 games played by Arsenal were with goals scored by both teams, while Chelsea scored at least 2 goals in the two matches played on their own ground in the new year.
Prediction Today: Over 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.65
