But a return to winning ways at Stamford Bridge tonight would see Arsenal go level with Tottenham with both having six games left to play after the tie in the capital. “Chelsea look back to their best,” Owen told BetVictor. “They had a dip in form, but the last few performances have been much better. Thomas Tuchel’s side currently sit third and would move 11 points clear of fifth-placed Arsenal with a win tonight which would put them in a very strong position to seal Champions League football for next season.

I love him in both positions. It (right centre-back) is less demanding physically in terms of accelerations, long acceleration, and high speed on a back three. “I think the back three is less demanding physically in comparison to the wing-back position. While that initially bodes well for Arsenal, it's important to note that they are actually stronger at home than away. "Obviously, as you all know he had Covid so he’s been away for a few days.

And that is a huge shame not only because it will impact the atmosphere of this London derby but it is the ideal evening for football. Stamford Bridge will not be full this evening with only Chelsea season ticket holders allowed to attend for the home side. Writing in his Sky Sports column, Merson said: "Arsenal are still in the top four race. That's of course if they get the job done tonight. Bukayo Saka at right wing back is something I have to say I'm skeptical about if that does turn out to be the case, but I do get the idea of playing it cautious up against this formidable Chelsea side. Takehiro Tomiyasu not even making the bench again is a worry but here's hoping he can make it back in time for Saturday's clash with Manchester United. They are in the top four now. An interesting team from Mikel Arteta. Lacazette on the bench. You can follow all of the live coverage as and when it happens in our dedicated live blog below.

Drifts inside, curls a wonderful cross into the box. Bukayo Saka got an increasing amount of joy on the right wing, seemingly beating Marcos Alonso at will, and he was involved as the Gunners restored their lead. Andreas Christensen played a terrible backpass, Eddie Nketiah pounced on it and finished with consumate ease past Edouard Mendy for his first Premier League goal of the season. 60% of the ball for Chelsea in that first-half. What a mad half of football, played at an insane pace. Big half to come for Arsenal.

Thomas Tuchel has made four changes to his team, with Romelu Lukaku making his first start since February. Ruben Loftus-Cheek is rewarded for his goal at Wembley at the weekend with a start alongside N'Golo Kanté in midfield, while Malang Sarr comes in for Antonio Rüdiger who misses out completely. Can the Gunners return to winning ways after three defeats in a row, or will Chelsea show why they've made third place their own? The Gunners lost the reverse fixture 2-0 back in August, when Mikel Arteta's side briefly found themselves propping up the Premier League table, and another loss here would hand arch-rivals Spurs the advantage with just six games to go.
Arsenal giving the ball away in their own half again, and Werner cuts inside from the left.
It was not the main reason - he deserves to play first of all and Kai is a bit tired. You look at the two teams on paper and there is a stark contrast in firepower. Chelsea on the attack again with Mount finding space and they win a corner. Elneny drops his team in it with an underhit pass in his own defensive third but Werner and Mount fail to get a shot off with red shirts around them. Chelsea back on the attack and have a corner on the left, this game is swinging back and forth. Arsenal giving the ball away in their own half again, and Werner cuts inside from the left. They took a risk playing out from the back but managed to keep the ball and find Odegaard in midfield. Odegaard in space again, and Smith Rowe arrives at the edge of the box to stroke it into the bottom corner. Saka beats Alonso all ends up and finds Nketiah with the cut-back, but he snatched at it and it scuffed wide. Arsenal had space down the left but Odegaard overhit the ball to Nketiah and the attack died. A Tavares cross his Azpilicueta in the face and the referee stops the game, much to Arteta's annoyance on the touchline. Moments after Azpilicueta went down, Nketiah took a kick from Sarr and Arsenal made sure the play was stopped in return.
Thomas Tuchel's side are back in form as the Gunners come to town. Join Rob Smyth for updates.
Chelsea are going to finish third, barring a tale of the seriously unexpected, whereas Arsenal are involved in an increasingly messy struggle for fourth place. Injuries, outgoing loans and the inherent irreplaceability of Thomas Partey have left Arsenal short in recent weeks, and few people fancy them to get anything tonight. There will be a reduced crowd at Stamford Bridge the night. Christensen played a poor backpass, well short of Mendy, and Nketiah was onto it in a flash. He cut inside and hit a pretty tame shot that took a deflection off Xhaka, who turned away from the ball, and spun past Ramsdale. I’m pretty sure Werner’s shot was going wide, in which case it will go down as a Xhaka own goal. Another way, perhaps, in which that Wenger-era Arsenal seems to span the birth of Football Today.” Loftus-Cheek won the ball 30 yards from goal and gave it to Werner on the left. It was an excellent break, starting with an indecently cool nutmeg on Alonso by Xhaka. Eventually Odegaard played a short pass to Smith Rowe, who ran onto the ball in the D and shaped a sweet first-time shot into the far corner. Nketiah turns Sarr smartly, 22 yards out, and cracks a left-footed shot just wide of the near post. It was a pretty poor challenge from Mount, actually, and he’s fortunate not to be booked. 25 min Saka’s deflected shot is headed across goal by Nketiah and volleyed off target by the stretching Tavares. No matter: Tavares was offside. That was crying out for Mick Harford, arriving late to put the ball and four Chelsea defenders into the net.

Edouard Mendy is given the ball with Arsenal pressing up the pitch. Arsenal will arguably be the happier side as they’ve been lacking goals recently but have looked sharp in front of goal. The first half swung beautifully back and forth as Eddie Nketiah opened the scoring before Timo Werner equalised a few minutes later. Kick off: Thiago Silva has come on for Chelsea replacing Andreas Christensen in the back line. The striker halts his run though as he looks offside and Aaron Ramsdale comes out to tidy up for Arsenal. He curls a low pass into the box for Lukaku to run onto but the forward is blocked off by Xhaka who holds him up long enough for Ramsdale to scoop up the loose ball.
