Why Bet on Chelsea?

After a dreadful start to the season, Chelsea seems to be regaining confidence and has three wins in a row in all competitions.

In the last match, they beat Burnley 4-1, with goals from Al Dakhil (against), Cole Palmer, Raheem Sterling and Nicolas Jackson. This was the first time in the campaign that they scored four times.

The Blues are in 11th place with 11 points and were able to win their last two games, both away, which generates expectation in what Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino can achieve.

However, at home so far they have only one win and one draw, losing twice. What’s more, the last two matches at Stamford Bridge were losses to Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest.

Pochettino’s side has injured defenders Ben Chilwell and Axel Disasi. Full-back and captain Reece James could already be considered.

Why Bet on Arsenal?

Arsenal is one of the two leaders in the Premier League, with 20 points, the same as Tottenham.

The Gunners got an important 1-0 victory over Manchester City, thanks to a goal by Brazilian Gabriel Martinelli. It was the Londoners’ first win in 15 matches against the Citizens for the league.

So far, the team led by Spaniard Mikel Arteta has six wins and two draws. Their six goals conceded are the best record in the English league after eight games.

English striker Bukayo Saka is the team’s most important player, registering four goals and two assists, and is said to have recovered after missing the game against City and the England national team due to injury. Also of note was Norwegian midfielder Martin Odegaard with three goals and an assist.

At the away level, Arsenal managed three wins in three games and also won the last three matches against the Blues, two of them at Stamford Bridge.

Final Betting Analysis: Chelsea vs. Arsenal

Due to recent history, the Stamford Bridge stadium will host one of the best matches England has to offer, with Chelsea facing Arsenal in a London Derby. Although Mauricio Pochettino’s team has been improving its performance, this season the Gunners have a voracious hunger for the title and will end up taking the victory.

The numbers at MyBookie.ag have Arsenal as the favorite, as the Moneyline for them shows +129, meanwhile Chelsea has +200 and the draw is +235.

Both of last season’s Premier League matches ended in victory for Arteta’s side, winning 1-0 away and 3-1 at home.

Go for a win in the Arsenal’s Moneyline. If you bet $100 at +260, you will gain $129 for a total payout of $219.
