Arsenal Vs Chelsea Preview
The latest Julian Alvarez transfer news gently teased a deadline day deal could come to fruition but Arsenal supporters were left frustrated with the club’s outgoings and lack of incomings. However, the champions have a 100% win record and are yet to concede in 2026-27.
That will put them in very good stead ahead of the visit of their capital rivals. Arteta oversaw a 1-0 win over Aston Villa on Monday and on MD1, goals from Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard helped the Reds to a 3-0 win over newbies Coventry.
As far as Chelsea are concerned, they too are on maximum points after two matchdays. Joao Pedro, Morgan Rogers and Cole Palmer netted in the 3-2 win at Fulham on the seasonal opener. Last Sunday, an entertaining 4-3 win over Brighton has given new manager Xabi Alonso a solid start heading into the biggest game of the Spaniard’s short Stamford Bridge reign.
