Comments and predictions for Chelsea vs Arsenal: Hard to win

Latest Chelsea vs Arsenal squad information

Chelsea manager Maresca made 11 changes from midweek, with Cole Palmer absent due to not being selected for the Conference League squad and recovering from a challenge from Lisandro Martinez. Maresca hopes Palmer will be back for the weekend, while Jadon Sancho is also doubtful due to injury and illness, and Omari Kellyman will miss out. Palmer has 12 goal involvements this season, but Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix have been impressive in his place.

For Arsenal, Declan Rice remains a doubt due to a toe injury. Martin Odegaard has returned from an ankle injury and could feature in the starting line-up. Kai Havertz needs a scan after a heavy collision with Yann Bisseck, while Riccardo Calafiori, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Kieran Tierney will not be available before the international break. Raheem Sterling is also absent against his former club.

Latest expected lineup for Chelsea vs Arsenal

Latest Chelsea vs Arsenal football commentary

Chelsea's thumping 8-0 win over FC Noah in the Conference League not only maintained their perfect record in the competition but also took Maresca's side to the top of the table with a superior goal difference. It was the Blues' third successive win in the competition, further cementing their European ambitions. The game also saw excellent performances from the likes of Joao Felix, who contributed two goals and an assist, along with Christopher Nkunku and Cole Palmer, who proved to be worthy replacements for the absentees.

Despite their success in the Conference League, Chelsea continue to struggle to keep a clean sheet in the Premier League, having failed to keep a clean sheet in six consecutive games at Stamford Bridge. They are still fourth in the table, but a win over Nottingham Forest and Newcastle would see them close the gap at the top, currently just two points behind Arsenal and Aston Villa. Chelsea could move into the top three if they pick up all three points this weekend.

Arsenal, meanwhile, are having a difficult season. Mikel Arteta's side have just gone three games without a win in the Premier League and are fifth, seven points behind leaders Liverpool. Despite some strong performances, Arsenal have been inconsistent, as evidenced by recent defeats to Newcastle United and Inter Milan. Arsenal lost 1-0 to a header from Alexander Isak at Newcastle, while they lost 1-0 to a Hakan Calhanoglu penalty at Inter. However, Arsenal can still hope for a change when they return to their London derbies, where they have won their last six in a row by a combined score of 22-3.

Another factor that has destabilized Arsenal is the resignation of sporting director Edu, which has further weakened the team's morale. Meanwhile, in the capital derby this weekend, Arsenal will face Chelsea, a team they beat 5-0 last season. This is also an important match to help Arteta and the players regain confidence and end the recent winless streak.
