Arsenal has a busy couple of months ahead now they've exited the FA Cup. In the Champions League, PSV was the opponents of the Gunners in the round of 16. The Londoners decided the fate of the quarterfinals in the first game, beating the Dutch away with a score of 7:1. The second game at the Emirates was also effective, but it didn't decide the winner – a draw 2:2.
In the English championship, the team of Mikel Arteta has had a bit of a rough time. After losing 0:1 at home to West Ham, Arsenal played two away matches and didn't do too well. First, they drew with Nottingham Forest, then they shared the goals with Manchester United. Before the start of the 29th round, Arsenal has 55 points and is second in the standings, 15 points behind Liverpool.
Chelsea
Chelsea is in a similar situation, with performances in the European arena in the Conference League and the EPL. In the last 16 of the UCL, the team under Enzo Maresca played twice against Copenhagen. In the first game, the away team beat the Danish side 2:1, and in the second game, they won 1:0 at home. In the Premier League, the club has bounced back from a 1:2 defeat to Aston Villa. They played two matches at home, scoring four unanswered goals against Southampton and narrowly beating Leicester City 1:0. Before the start of the 29th round, Chelsea had 49 points, putting them fourth in the EPL standings.
H2H Meetings
The first round of the Premier League's current campaign was at Stamford Bridge, and the main events were recorded only after the break. In the second half, the Gunners scored first after a great play by Gabi Martinelli, who passed to Edegor. But Chelsea hit back 10 minutes later, with Neto helping Fernandes. The Portuguese winger set the final score at 1:1, and the Gunners extended their unbeaten streak to seven games.

Expert Betting Tips
Both clubs have been below par for some time now, but Chelsea have been doing better recently – they've won the last four EPL games, while Arsenal hasn't won in three. At the Emirates, it won't be a walk in the park for Chelsea, as Arsenal have been a bit of a thorn in their side in recent seasons. We expect it to be a heated match with plenty of yellow cards. We're expecting a productive performance and a draw.
Our picks:
X2 for 1.95
