Arsenal host Chelsea on Sunday afternoon, and while both sides have made winning starts to the season, this is a fixture the Gunners have utterly dominated in recent years.
Arsenal have been near flawless early on, winning both of their opening games while scoring four and conceding none. That watertight defence is the platform for everything they do and makes them a daunting proposition on home soil. Chelsea, by contrast, have been all-action, seven goals scored but five shipped across their two outings, the mark of a side brimming with attacking intent but still leaving the back door ajar.
The visitors will point to their own goal touch as reason for belief. Few teams have found the net as freely as Chelsea in the early weeks, and that firepower means they carry a threat wherever they play. The problem is who stands in their way, because this is not a fixture that has been kind to them.
Recent history makes for grim reading if you are Chelsea. Arsenal are unbeaten in the last ten meetings between the pair, winning seven and drawing three, and outscoring the Blues 20 goals to 8 along the way. Chelsea have not won any of them, a run that takes in a 5-0 hammering and a 3-1 success for the Gunners. Whatever shape this Chelsea side is in, this is a wall they have repeatedly failed to break down.
Expect a lively, competitive afternoon. Chelsea’s early goals and Arsenal’s occasional openness suggest chances at both ends, but the Gunners’ rock-solid start and their stranglehold on this fixture point firmly their way. This has the feel of a game Arsenal control, with their defensive record and recent dominance the difference in the key moments.
That attacking intent on both sides is why the first-half-goal market catches the eye. Six of the last ten meetings have seen a goal before the break, and with Chelsea already shipping five this term and Arsenal quick out of the traps, an early goal looks a genuine possibility.
