After another two-week hiatus, Mikel Arteta’s showtime Arsenal are back in action on Saturday evening as they travel to Chelsea for a London derby.
The Gunners entered the international break in a buoyant mood following their 1-0 victory over Manchester City, and it looks as if Arteta’s squad will crucially return to London Colney injury-free.
After securing a huge triumph before the break, the Gunners will now be hoping to continue their productive start to the season. Arsenal have dominated the head-to-head duel with Chelsea as of late, and one of their most dominant performances of 2022/23 arrived at Stamford Bridge, but the Blues head into Saturday’s clash having won three straight.
Mauricio Pochettino has endured a difficult start to life in west London, but his Chelsea outfit have shown distinct signs of improvement in recent weeks having struggled time and time again in the final third. The ex-Tottenham boss will be keen to get one over Arsenal this weekend, perhaps restoring his reputation a little bit among Spurs supporters.
Here’s our preview of the Gunners’ Premier League clash against Chelsea on Saturday evening.
