This round of the Premier League begins with a London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal. After a series of poor results in the league, Chelsea managed a convincing win in the Champions League, which will likely contribute to a good mood in the team. Arsenal, in turn, lost their visit to Dinamo Zagreb in midweek and generally did not start the season in the best way.
The home team players will be looking for their first league win in front of own audience this season. Jose Mourinho will probably not be able to rely on new signing Pedro, as well as Willian. The first choice goalkeeper, Courtois has a serious injury and will be absent for several months. Surprisingly, since the beginning of the new campaign, a major problem for Chelsea is their defense, as they conceded at least 2 goals in their league matches so far.
A good opportunity reveals before Arsene Wenger to win for the first time against Jose Mourinho in a Premier League game. Arsenal will definitely be motivated for success, but let`s not forget who the champion are. Furthermore, Arsenal haven`t won to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge since 2011. This season, however, the gunners began with good away performances and won both their away games in the league. Moreover, Arsenal won 7 of their last 8 away games in the Premier League.
Undoubtedly, this London derby will have many exciting moments and hopefully a lot of goals. Chelsea FC - Arsenal: Predictions and statistics
