Where to watch Chelsea vs Arsenal live stream, TV channel, lineups, betting odds for Premier League match

Arsenal make their Premier League return this weekend with a crunch clash away at London rivals Chelsea on October 21.

Mikel Arteta secured his first Premier League win over Pep Guardiola ahead of the international break as Gabriel Martinelli's late winner sealed a 1-0 victory over defending champions Manchester City. That result moved the Gunners up to second in the table, behind leaders Tottenham, and gave them real belief that they could mount another serious title bid in 2023/24.

Mauricio Pochettino's Chelsea picked up successive Premier League wins ahead of this match after struggling for results during the opening weeks of the season. Things are looking up at Stamford Bridge, but a poor result against Arsenal could derail their new-found momentum and prompt further questions about their chances of challenging this season.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it across the world, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.
