4 Reasons Arsenal Will Defeat Chelsea In The London Derby by Debaddest(m): 7:52am On Sep 24, 2016 |
The Arsenal/Chelsea match have always been a derby football fans around world love to watch because of the pedigree of both teams. Arsene Wenger who has been manager of the Gunners for 20 years has not been having fair results against the Blues in recent years. It has been Wenger against Mourinho in the past two years but this week’s episode will be against Premier League debutant Antonio Conte. Here are the four reasons Arsenal will defeat Chelsea at the Emirates 1. The Gunners are on the ascendancy Since their opening day loss to Liverpool, Arsenal have won three matches out of four in the Premier League against Watford, Southampton, and Hull City respectively. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Arsenal has been in fine form recently and scoring many goals Even in cup games such as the Champions League and the EFL Cup, the Arsene Wenger tutored side have improved as each game comes with a draw against PSG in Paris and a win away to Nottingham Forest. 2. Terry’s absence Chelsea’s inspirational captain has been confirmed unavailable by Antonio Conte and the Italian is unhappy with the defender’s absence in the crucial fixture at the Emirates. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Terry will miss the Arsenal match at the Emirates The Blues defence have not been too convincing this season as they have conceded 10 goals in seven matches in all competitions which could be to Arsenal’s psychological advantage. 3. Arsenal plays more as a unit In the matches played so far, the Gunners have played more as a team in all of their matches with the influence of Granit Xhaka, Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez, the trio have inspired other players performances. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Granit Xhaka celebrates his strike in the League Cup with teammates The collectiveness of the team have been so far laudable and will be important when they go into the match against the unsettled Chelsea side who usually wrestle from behind to win games. 4. Play on Costa’s frustration Costa will be one man to watch in the South London derby with his bullish character and has the ability to frustrate a cool headed player into committing an offence worthy of a red card. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Arsenal’s Gabriel in war of words with Chelsea’s Diego Costa Arsenal have always displayed their huge appetite for goals and if they can go one or two goals up, attentions surrounding the Spanish striker will be of minimal effect in the match. 2 Likes

And now Chelsea. Usually Conte's 4-1-4-1 has Oscar in the middle next to Matic, and his job is to link the midfield with the striker during attacks. This formation looks more like Chelsea are going to sit deep and try to hit Arsenal on the counter-attack - Fabregas' start in midfield certainly makes this seem far more likely, as his long balls over the top for Costa are a straight forward solution to the pressure Arsenal will look to put on them in the defensive third. Willian and Hazard will probably play quite high up the pitch, making this formation look like a 4-3-3 in attack and a 4-1-4-1 in defence. The attacking version of this system looks like a 4-1-2-3 in attack. 4:40pm The Arsenal team Either Wenger doesn't think Perez is good enough to lead the line, reckons Giroud simply isn't fit enough to start, or he thinks his team needs some fluid rotation upfront to open up the Chelsea defence. Sanchez isn't great as a striker, though he has performed well in that position for his country. Most of the noise from Arsenal fans on Twitter is of disbelief that Wenger hasn't started Xhaka. That's just Twitter though, I really wouldn't give it too much thought. It's mostly teenagers and the kinds of people you'd ignore in a pub. 4:33pm Team news Arsenal start without a striker... while Chelsea have Fabregas in the team, just like we (me) predicted! Arsenal Cech; Monreal, Mustafi, Koscielny, Bellerin; Cazorla, Coquelin, Walcott, Ozil, Iwobi; Sanchez Subs: Ospina, Holding, Gibbs, Xhaka, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lucas, Giroud Chelsea Courtois; Ivanovic (c), Cahill, David Luiz, Azpilicueta; Kante; Willian, Fabregas, Matic, Hazard; Diego Costa Subs: Begovic, Marcos Alonso, Chalobah, Oscar, Moses, Pedro, Batshuayi.
