Pre-Match Opta Facts for Chelsea vs Arsenal: Chelsea have lost five of their last six Premier League games against Arsenal (W1), as many defeats as they’d suffered in their previous 25 against them (W14 D6). Arsenal have won each of their last three away league games against Chelsea – they could become the first side to win four in a row against the Blues at Stamford Bridge since Watford between 1981 and 1986. Arsenal are unbeaten in their last 15 league London derbies (W11 D4), the third-longest such run in Premier League history after Chelsea (20 between 2004 and 2006) and the Gunners themselves (35 between 2001 and 2005). Chelsea have won both of their last two Premier League games, last winning more in a row in October 2022 (a run of 4). However, the Blues have lost their last two league games at Stamford Bridge; only in November 1993 have they ever lost three consecutive Premier League home games, with the third match in that run coming against Arsenal (0-2). Arsenal have won their three Premier League away games this season by an aggregate score of 6-0 – only twice have they won their first four on the road in a league season (1903-04 and 2004-05). This is just the second time the Gunners have kept a clean sheet in their first three away league games after 1995-96, losing 1-0 at Chelsea in their fourth game on the road that season. As well as being one of two teams still unbeaten in the Premier League this season (W6 D2), no side has kept more clean sheets (4) or conceded fewer goals (6) than Arsenal in the division this term. Meanwhile, Chelsea have netted more goals in their last two league games (6) than they had in their first six this season (5). Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has never lost a Premier League home game against Arsenal, winning three and drawing three of his six such meetings. Overall, his sides have only failed to score in two of his 13 league meetings with the Gunners, though they’ve never scored more than twice in a match. Mikel Arteta has won five of his eight Premier League games against Chelsea (62.5% – D1 L2). Of all managers to take charge of more than five against them, only Kenny Dalglish (76.9%) and Pep Guardiola (64.3%) have a higher win rate against the Blues than the Arsenal boss. Kai Havertz – who assisted Arsenal’s winner against Man City last time out – could make his 100th Premier League appearance in this match (91 for Chelsea, 8 for Arsenal so far). 27 different players to have previously played for Chelsea in the Premier League have scored against them in the competition, the most against any side in the competition’s history. Arsenal captain Martin Ødegaard has applied more pressures (closing down an opposing player while out of possession) than any other player in the Premier League this season (253), while he’s also the only player to have made 100+ in both the middle third (111) and attacking third (112).
