Chelsea host London counterpart, Arsenal at Stamford Bridge this weekend in a huge Premier League showdown, which is a meeting between fourth and fifth in the division table.
The Blues go into Sunday fresh off an emphatic 8-0 home win over Noah yesterday in the Conference League group stages.
Meanwhile, former Chelsea midfielder and manager Frank Lampard has predicted the outcome of Chelsea vs Arsenal Clash at Stamford Bridge.
Interestingly, Frank Lampard tipping Enzo Maresca’s team for a home win if Cole Palmer is fit and in the starting XI. If not, he thinks it’ll be a score draw.
“I don’t do this very often but my prediction here rests on whether one player is fit or not – Chelsea’s Cole Palmer,” Lampard told Footyvalid.
“Arsenal have a doubt over Declan Rice which is a worry for them, and Martin Odegaard will be rusty after returning from his layoff with a brief appearance against Inter Milan in midweek, but it is Palmer who holds the key.
Nevertheless, In Chelsea’s last six meetings with Arsenal, they’ve got a pretty terrible record. The Blues have one win, one draw and four defeats in the previous six Premier League clashes with their London neighbours.
