Arsenal vs Chelsea: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds

Manchester City have seized the initiative in the race at the top but the Gunners are still fighting. For Mikel Arteta, this season has simply been too good to simply give up now.

Still, his team will surely need to win every game from here. On a run of four games without a victory, that has to change to stand any chance of overtaking City.

Chelsea, meanwhile, will be looking to spoil the party.

It has been a terrible season for the Blues but having derailed Tottenham’s title challenge in 2016, doing the same to Arsenal would at least be something to shout about for supporters.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Arsenal vs Chelsea is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off time on Tuesday May 2, 2023.

The Emirates Stadium in London will host.

Arsenal vs Chelsea team news

Arteta is expected to make changes following Wednesday’s loss to Manchester City, albeit the Arsenal boss is fairly hamstrung at the back.

William Saliba will not be fit for the game, limiting options in defence. Further forward, however, Leandro Trossard could come back into the team.

For Chelsea, Lampard has been operating with a 3-5-2 of late, with Conor Gallagher partnering Kai Havertz up front.

The German forward has shaken off a knee complaint to put himself in contention to start, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and David Datro Fofana for competion.

Arsenal vs Chelsea prediction

The wheels do appear to be coming off for Arsenal and while it seems strange to back a Chelsea team so low on confidence, they have previous in spoiling it for others.

Chelsea to win 2-1.
