It is a huge London derby to cap the final weekend before the break off, with the Blues looking to move six points clear of the Gunners.

After a chaotic summer, Enzo Maresca appears to be making quick-fire progress at Stamford Bridge. They have largely impressed in the bigger games this season, though underwhelmed during Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Manchester United.

Quite how much can be read into Thursday’s 8-0 win over FC Noah in the Conference League, of course, is up for debate.

Arsenal, meanwhile, are without a win in their last three League games, with last weekend’s 1-0 defeat at Newcastle their second defeat during that run.

The Gunners also lost their unbeaten record in the Champions League too, falling to a 1-0 defeat away at Inter Milan on Wednesday night.

Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Chelsea vs Arsenal team news

Chelsea are confident Cole Palmer will return after his recent injury. Maresca is expected to make wholesale changes to Thursday’s team anyway, with all of Moises Caicedo, Nicolas Jackson, Reece James, Wesley Fofana and Romeo Lavia likely to return.

Declan Rice is a doubt for Arsenal, along with Kai Havertz. Martin Odegaard is expected to feature in some capacity. Raheem Sterling cannot play against his parent club.

Chelsea vs Arsenal prediction

Chelsea have impressed against Manchester City and Liverpool, while they really should have beaten Manchester United. While the Gunners aren’t to be discounted, they have been poor of late.

Draw, 1-1.
