This has the potential of being of the match of the season so far. Defending Premier League champions Arsenal are second in the table, ahead of visitors fourth placed Chelsea on goal difference. The Gunners have won three matches this season, all to nil. Our prediction is that they will beat Chelsea..
The Gunners have made an excellent start to the new season. After winning the Community Shield in Cardiff, Arsenal have won their first two league games to nil. They have had a good transfer window too and now face a tough challenge at the Emirates but it's one that they look capable of performing well in.
Things might calm down a little at Stamford Bridge after another hectic transfer window. It's been changes galore for them, but Chelsea have made a good start to the season with a couple of league wins. The goals are flowing at both ends of the pitch and their defending needs to improve if they are to do well at the Emirates.

Arsenal - Chelsea: Form Analysis
Arsenal have the Premier League title to defend this season and it's all gone well so far. They beat Manchester City 3-0 in the Community Shield to make a real statement of intent. After taking so long to finally win the title again, they have strengthened in the summer and are determined to finish top again this season.
The new league season began with a 3-0 win at home to Coventry City. It was tougher in their second fixture with a 1-0 away win at Aston Villa on Monday evening. The Gunners had the best home record in last season's Premier League with 15 wins and just two losses. Only 11 home league goals were conceded.
Chelsea have also won their first two league games of the season. A 3-2 win at Fulham was followed by another high-scoring match as they beat Brighton and Hove Albion 4-3 at home. Seven goals scored, but five conceded may be an indication of what life under Alonso is going to be.
Chelsea need to improve on the road.
The Blues only finished tenth in the Premier League last season 33 points behind Arsenal. Their away form produced seven league victories, but they lost the same number of games. That included three of the last four and that is something they can't afford this season.

Arsenal & Chelsea Squad Analysis
Arsenal did well to get a win at Villa Park on Monday but it has led to a busy time in their treatment room. Declan Rice (who always seems to be in the wars) and Cristhian Mosquera were both unable to complete the match. The latter missed their training session on Thursday. Bruno Guimaraes was also unable to train on Thursday.
Rice is expected to be fit to play on Sunday. If Mosquera is unable to play, there may be a full debut for Ezri Konsa. Jurrien Timber has also returned to training and may be part of their squad for this match. They will remain to be without William Saliba, though his absence doesn't seem to be doing their defence much harm.
Toughest task of the season for the Blues.
Chelsea also have six points after beating Fulham and Brighton and Hove Albion. This is going to be their toughest task of the season to date. A hectic transfer window ended with the departure of Enzo Fernandez and another problem for the Blues is that Moises Caicedo is doubtful for this match after being injured last Sunday.
Two league games have seen 12 goals scored, so a bet on this match having more than 2.5 goals may well be a winning one. Chelsea will also be without Jordan Henderson and Marco Palestra, but with Palmer and Pedro in form and Rogers settling in well, this could be a great match.
