Arsenal failed to return to winning ways in their away match against Bournemouth and saw their win-less streak extended. They will now have a tough task on Sunday when they will play host to London rivals Chelsea. Chelsea are coming off an unexpected loss at home and have not been in god shape either.

Chelsea (10-7-2) are coming into this match after a really frustrating 2-0 loss at home against Southampton. They conceded a goal in each half and were not able to score. They did beat Tottenham by 2-0 in their previous match but have now lost three of their last four league matches. Chelsea are sitting at the 4th spot of the league table with 32 points, two ahead of Wolves and six behind Manchester City. They have been quite good on the road (6-3-0), winning just one of their last four.

Arsenal (5-5-9) played a really balanced match on the road against Bournemouth, where they came back from one goal behind to hold out for a 1-1 draw. The Gunners have struggled mightily in the past couple of months, winning just once in that span (1-4-9). They are now sitting at the 12th spot of the league table with 24 points, six ahead of the red line and eight behind the top-four. Arsenal have been mediocre at home so far (3-2-4) and have not won any of their last six there (0-3-3).

The two teams last met in the Europa League Final last season, where Chelsea easily won by 1-4. The two rivals also exchanged home wins in the league last season, and Chelsea have not won easily in this venue, with just one win here in the last five years (1-5-4). Going with Arsenal to cover the spread here.
