Arsenal have not won a league game at Stamford Bridge in six years.
They will cling to the success gained against Antonio Conte’s side in the FA Cup final, and the Community Shield, but will surely find this a more daunting assignment.
Chelsea have quietly been building up a head of steam, and they eased beyond Qarabag in midweek with key players rested and an eye on this derby. Conte will consider this an opportunity to make a statement in terms of his side’s title defence.
Joy Sports Gary Al-Smith and match analyst Nii Akwei have a go at this game, which kicks off at 12:30GMT on Sunday. In summary, they expect:
? Narrow Chelsea win (Gary)
? Both teams to score, but Chelsea to win (Gary)
? Morata to score in Chelsea 2-0 win is a good tip
? Draw or Arsenal win (Nii Akwei)
? Under 2.5 match goals a good tip
? Morata to score at anytime very likely
