Arsenal Vs. Chelsea 2016: Prediction by praisecity(m): 11:44am On Jan 23, 2016 |
Chelsea’s hopes of retaining their Premier League title may have long since gone, but they could yet deliver a major blow to Arsenal’s hopes of ending their long championship drought. A massive 19 points and 13 places improbably separate the two London rivals going into Sunday’s clash at the Emirates Stadium, but a victory would see the league leaders clear a lofty physical and psychological hurdle en route to what Arsenal hope will be a title party in May. Arsenal’s last championship in 2004 coincided with the arrival of Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge and the transformation of Chelsea into the toughest team in England. Even between his two spells in charge, that steel remained. And now, even after his departure, there are signs of its presence once again. In contrast, while Chelsea have won four titles since 2004, Arsenal’s brittleness and naivety has prevented them from finishing top of the Premier League pile. No team has exposed those deficiencies more than Chelsea. Arsenal have won just four of their 23 Premier League matches against Chelsea since the start of the 2004-2005 season, with their last victory coming in Oct. 2011. Since then, Arsenal have been on the wrong end of a 6-0 demolition that effectively ended their hopes of landing the title two seasons ago. Even last September, when Chelsea were in the midst of their worst start to a season in recent memory, they still managed to conjure up a 2-0 victory over Arsenal. It is no surprise, then, that Wenger sees Sunday’s match as a massive test, although one he insists his team are ready to pass. Possible line up: Arsenal G: Cech D: Bellerín , Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal M: Flamini, Ramsey Campbell, Özil , Walcott F: Giroud Chelsea G: Courtois D: Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry, Azpilicueta M: Matic, Mikel Willian, Fabregas, Pedro F: Costa Prediction: Chelsea have shipped five goals in their last two outings, but a visit to the Emirates Stadium will likely see them adopt a strategy closer to the cautious one adopted in a goalless draw at Manchester United last month. There will be one notable difference from that encounter on Sunday, however, in the availability of a finally in- form Diego Costa. The striker’s antics helped get Gabriel sent off at Stamford Bridge last September and both his provocations and ability to lead the line will threaten Arsenal’s chances on Sunday. Still missing Francis Coquelin, Arsenal could be vulnerable to Chelsea’s counter-attacks and Wenger’s men may have to settle for a draw. Predicted score: Arsenal 1-1 Chelsea 1 Like
