Arsenal, who have suffered many setbacks in the Premier League, are about to embark on a crucial "London Derby", facing Chelsea at home in the early hours of Wednesday morning. Facing the last ray of hope for the title, the "Arsenal" must go all out in this game, and cannot afford to lose. Interim boss Lambert returned to his hometown but suffered 5 consecutive defeats, players' confidence, status, will and strength are in the doldrums, Arsenal is expected to rebound in this game, to find the rhythm of victory. (Simulcast on Now 621 and 611 at 3am on Wednesday)
Arsenal have failed to win 4 consecutive league matches, and with a 1-4 loss in their previous top-of-the-table clash with Manchester City, the title race has taken a sharp turn for the worse. Although they are only 1 point behind Man City in the league points and have played one more game, but from the figures, they are still not completely desperate. I believe the "arsenal" will not give up easily. The average age of Arsenal's players is the second lowest in the Premier League, and it's only natural that they will misbehave under the pressure of the title race. It is now widely expected that Manchester City's title win is a foregone conclusion, and Arsenal will be able to take the burden off their shoulders and perform at their best.
Head-to-head record is superior
Arsenal's performance at the Emirates Stadium this season has been perfect, with 4 wins and 1 draw in their last 5 league home games, totaling a whopping 18 goals, an amazing attacking force. Coupled with Arsenal's excellent record against Chelsea in recent years, they have achieved 4 wins and 1 loss in the last 5 Premier League encounters, demonstrating strong competitiveness.
The Blues are full of injuries
Since Chelsea changed their team leader in March, they thought that the team's situation would be improved, but the result is worse than ever. After Lambert took over, the team lost 5 consecutive matches and scored only 1 goal in 7 matches. The "Blue Warriors" have dropped to the 12th place in the league and have lost their qualification in the European competition. The team's morale is low, and key players such as Liz Jimenez, Mason Monte, and Guglielmo are injured, so I'm afraid the prospect of this away match against Chiefs Stadium is not optimistic.
