Chelsea Preview – Can Chelsea bounce back?
Chelsea were handed a disappointing 1-0 defeat away from home at Newcastle united on Saturday as The Blues continue to struggle for consistency as the past few weeks have resulted with wins against Arsenal (2-1 away ) and a 3-0 home win over Burnley but they’ve also fallen to defeats against Southampton and Newcastle as well.
Despite the mixed fortunes though, Chelsea still remain in 4th place in the Premier League and have a chance to do the ‘double’ against Arsenal in the top flight on Tuesday night as they welcome The Gunners to Stamford Bridge for this all-London clash.
Frank Lampard’s Chelsea outfit tends not to deal in draws this term as The Blues have been involved in just 3 stalemates so far this season, while collecting 12 wins and 8 defeats in this new-look approach in this campaign.
Chelsea’s recent win against Arsenal may give them the edge here and having won 5 of their last 8 matches at home, there’s possible value in backing the hosts here.
Arsenal Preview – Can Arsenal make statement?
With six league places and 10 points separating them from their Tuesday night’s hosts, Chelsea, this Arsenal side find themselves further apart from their London counterparts now than in recent memory as they prepare for this mouthwatering clash at Stamford Bridge.
Arsenal have never really got going so far in this campaign but there’s still time for The Gunners to make a late surge in this second half of the season as they look to rebuild under former player and now manager, Mikel Arteta, following a 2-0 win over Manchester United and back-to-back draws with Crystal Palace and Sheffield United.
However, the visitors have actually picked up just 2 wins out of their last 15 matches overall in the Premier League and their form has never been this bad before, so there’s no guarantees of Arsenal getting anything at Chelsea tonight either.
Arsenal are unbeaten in their last 5 away matches, but 4 of these were draws, while the bigger picture shows that Arsenal have won just 4 of their last 17 away matches in the top flight.
