Chelsea Preview – Can Blues overtake Foxes?

Chelsea have a chance to jump into 3rd spot at the expense of Leicester City when they take on London rivals, Arsenal, at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night, and in turn further strengthen their position in the top four with a place in next season’s Champions League being the major prize.

With three wins on the trot and just one defeat out of their last 16 matches overall in the top flight, Chelsea look in good shape here under manager, Thomas Tuchel, who praised former manager, Frank Lampard, for laying the foundations at Chelsea, and recent wins against West Ham, Fulham and most impressive of all, a 2-1 win away at Manchester City should give the hosts plenty of confidence.

Chelsea have lost just one of their last eight games at home, that being the freakish 5-2 loss to relegated West Brom, but four wins and seven clean sheets within this sequence makes the hosts hard to beat here.

Our betting suggestion:

Arsenal Preview – Can Gunners win three on trot?

Arsenal will have to do so if they’re to be considered serious contenders for making a late challenge for a possible top five finish and they’ll head into this all-London clash at Stamford Bridge on the back of wins against Newcastle United and West Brom.

However, the visitors are a shadow of their former selves under present manager, Mikel Arteta, who has been given an inordinate amount of time at the helm of The Gunners (compared to other managers in the top flight), and it’s time his side start firing on a more consistent basis.

Arsenal do bring a five-match unbeaten run on the road though into this clash which includes wins at Leicester City, Sheffield United and Newcastle United but they’re expected to face a tough challenge at Chelsea here.
