For Arsenal, this is an important game in the race for the Premier League title. They are in a good position to open up a four-point gap with their opponents after two games before Manchester City lose the Premier League.
I was impressed by Arsenal's win over Wolves away from home, especially since Wolves have been so good at home this season. A week ago, they lost to Aston Villa and were eliminated from the top eight of the Europa League in midweek. The Arsenal showed strong mental strength to win the game against Wolves.
One man I'd like to highlight in particular is Leandro Duchate. In recent years, a lot of notable players such as Alex McAlexander and Moses Scarcitto have made the move from Brighton to the big clubs. In comparison, Duchate's move to Arsenal hasn't attracted much attention, but he is a very important move for Arsenal. His ability to score goals or influence the game has been extremely important for the Arsenal over the past few months, both as a backup and a regular. If he ends up helping Arsenal win the title, he'll surely be the best transfer in the last two seasons in relation to Bradleyton.
Arsenal's defenders will be happy to remain undefeated in the battle after two games in which they conceded goals. There's no doubt that William Shaliba and Gabil Magahis will continue to be right in this battle, but watch out for Zojinnu to be used as a rearguard in front of them. While he has great ball control, he moves relatively slowly. He is the latest hotshot attacking midfielder Galpenma and could be a huge threat.
On the other side, I believe Chelsea were very unfortunate to be out of the top 4 of the EFL. They may have been a better playing team compared to Manchester City, but as we have seen throughout the season, the Roadrunners wasted a lot of goal scoring chances and were ultimately punished by the opposition.
Nonetheless, the Blue Warriors have performed well against strong teams this season and it is expected that they will perform similarly in this game as they did against Manchester City. They will be content to let this fairy slave control the ball and will try to regain their possession and counterattack through areas where they can press their opponents in an attempt to attack them.
Whilst I think Nicolas Jackson needs to be calmer with his last foot in front of the Dragons, there is no denying that he is key for the Roadrunners due to his pressing up front and willingness to assist the defense at the back. When we saw the Roadrunner score in the previous game against Tottenham, we caught the opposition defending high. This Arsenal also likes to move the defensive line forward when in possession. I think this is where the Roadrunners can steal a chicken.
With more and more pressure on Arsenal to win every game, Pudjettenu, as a former Tottenham captain, will never go soft on the Arsenal. Therefore, I think the Soldier of Blue is a tricky one for Arsenal. At the end of the day, Chelsea are still hopeful of reaching European competition in the league. Moreover, Chelsea's record at the Emirates Stadium has been very good since it was built. Therefore, I have a feeling that Chelsea's anti-war style might hurt Arsenal and predict that the match in London will end in harmony.
