Chelsea vs Arsenal Pre Match Predictions

Can easily see Chelsea losing this one.

It'll be 1-2 Arsenal I think.

EDIT: Anyone have an idea of what team Wenger will go with?

No drogba no party.
He is back.

Arsenal will get a draw or a win( good news for me )

Will be hard game for both side. The team scores first will win the game I think.

8-2 admit it, but it will be a draw.

Whoever wins I hope it's a drubbing so we have more fun with number puns.

Chelsea win, for me. Draw at best. We generally don't do that well at Stamford Bridge.

Sure Wenger will go with this:

Szczesny; Koscielny, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Andre Santos; Song, Arteta, Ramsey; Walcott, Gervinho, van Persie

That right flank of ours is going to be an issue.

Don't think we'll win this one to be perfectly honest. The best we can hope for is a draw. We're in good form, but Chelsea look pretty solid and are clear favourites here.

Luiz starting does increase our chances though.

Luiz starting means he can bless his team mates. How does that increase your chances?

It will all depend on how Song performs on the D, and Gervihno on the offence. I would be happy with a draw given the circumstances.However, if our boys do end up losing, its understandable as well.

Gil going defensive from the beginning. Ill help him.

If Chelsea lose they aren't 3rd spot contenders XD.

Naa i expect Chelsea to win 3-1. Torres is back. Arsenal will put up a fight but i just don't see it happening for them at the bridge.

I say draw too, there's a decent chance we win with the way we've played lately, but draw seems more likely.

I'll be surprised if Chelsea don't win.

I predict a 2-1 for us.

Just read this and I agree

Chelsea didn't look convincing against Everton and last weekend against QPR which is why I think we'll snatch this game

However, Chelsea have won 4 out of 4 at Stamford Bridge in the league while Arsenal have 1 draw and 3 defeats from their away games.

We were down to 9 men against QPR, and we still dominated and had the best chances, if anything, you should be worried...

Everton? Which game, the one where we dominated them and won 3-1 last week, or the game yesterday where our B squad played and won 2-1? with a man down*


I see a 3-0 win for chelsea

I was talking about the 2-1 against Everton. I was not aware that you were using your 'B squad' like you say. The only thing I saw was that Everton outplayed you guys and deserved the win but you were fortunate enough to get the victory.

Against QPR yes you were down to 9 by the end, and still had the better chances, but even before the 2 Reds (both of which were justified imo, albeit Drogba's was harsh) I think you guys should have put them away.

Don't get me wrong, I know you guys are a force, especially at the bridge, I just have a very good feeling about this game so I am feeling optimistic

lol at gil trying to be humble n respectful


u know it mate we will get destroyed tomorrow.

I dont see us winning, our away record is TERRIBLE. We havnt won away since blackpool last season in march i think.

Torres is back in form, mata will have djourou/koscielny against him lol, ramires will pressurise us to no end etc etc

think it will be 3-0 to chelsea, or 2-1 to them if we decide to show up.

im not sure if Vermaelen will play. Its dangerous to break mert-kos partnership.

I think we will field this team


---------------------------------Szczesny---------------------------------

Koscielny----------mertesacker---------Vermaelen-----------Santos

---------------------------------------Song----------------------------------

-----------------Arteta---------------------------Ramsey------------------

Theo--------------------------Rvp---------------------------Gervinho


back 4 isnt certain btw.

Like jay said, get a point and tha will be excellent because our next 4 games will be all winnable ( yea thats what they all say )

You should be worrying about your own fixture

Just it fails to meet the "Wednesday night criteria"

dont know the meaning of it mole :shisha:

The mere fact its on Halloween makes that irrelevant tbf

You know..

Current form doesnt matter when top teams face each other.

Liverpool have been average side in recent years but always stepped up against man utd or chelsea.

All depends on how key players perform and tactics.

Im glad Drogba isnt starting...

Juan Mata is key player... forget Fernandont Scorres.

One thing i know for sure is that this wont be a thrashing. if we can reach half time at 0-0, i think we have a chance
