Arsenal vs Chelsea Preview: Title Race at Stake

Arsenal hosts Chelsea in a crucial Premier League encounter with the Gunners seeking a third consecutive victory over their London rivals while maintaining their five-point lead in the title race.

The fourth meeting between these clubs this season comes at a pivotal moment for Arsenal's title ambitions. After drawing 1-1 in the reverse league fixture and defeating Chelsea in both Carabao Cup semi-final legs, Mikel Arteta's team aims to reinforce their head-to-head dominance while keeping pressure on Manchester City.

With ten matches remaining and a trip to the Etihad still to come, Arsenal knows dropped points could prove costly. Chelsea, despite showing resilience in previous encounters, faces a confident and cohesive Arsenal side at home. The prediction favors the Gunners to extend their lead with a 2-1 victory in this crucial fixture.
