Copybet Prediction Challenge: Predict the outcome of Chelsea versus Arsenal for the chance to win a £100 free bet!
It’s been a week to forget for Arsenal fans. The Gunners have suffered back to back 1-0 away defeats in the Premier League and Champions League, to Newcastle United and Inter Milan respectively and now they head to Stamford Bridge desperate to get back to winning ways.
They face a Chelsea side who are unbeaten at home in seven matches, since the season’s opening weekend when they lost to Manchester City. Under new manager Enzo Maresca, the Blues are starting to move through the gears and a victory against Mikel Arteta’s side on Sunday would move them three points above their London rivals going into the international break.
Such has been Arsenal’s drop off in form in recent weeks, with just one league win in their last four games, that the north Londoners now face the very real prospect of falling outside of the top six if they fail to beat Chelsea and other results go against them. This downturn in fortunes is highlighted by the current title odds listed by sportsbook CopyBet. The Gunners are now 10/3 third favourites having been as short as 11/8 a little over two weeks ago.
There is cause for optimism though for Arsenal fans as their side has a great recent record playing away at Chelsea. You have to go back to August 2018 for Chelsea’s last league win at home to the Gunners and since then Arsenal have won on three occasions and drawn the other two. Another away win on Sunday is 27/10 with CopyBet, with the draw 23/10 and a Chelsea victory priced up at 9/5.
The two games between these sides last season produced a total of nine goals and over 2.5 goals to be scored on Sunday is 8/11. Both teams to score looks a likely outcome at 4/7, while both teams to find the net and the match to finish as a draw is 14/5.
In the goalscoring markets, plenty of eyes will be on Arsenal’s Kai Havertz as returns to Stamford Bridge where he spent three seasons. The German scored twice when the sides last met back in April of this year and he’s 9/4 to net anytime in this one. For Chelsea, much of their success will depend on the performance of Cole Palmer. The 22-year-old has seven in the league already this season and is 11/2 favourite to break the deadlock in this match.
