The Emirates Stadium will stage a crucial London Derby this weekend, as Arsenal host Chelsea in the 2025/26 English Premier League.

Arsenal forfeited ground in their Premier League title race when they were held to a draw by Championship-bound Wolves in their penultimate league match.

Manager Mikel Arteta’s side have since bounced back to winning ways in the North London Derby, defeating Tottenham 4-1 away from home.

The Gunners remain five points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table, though they have played one more game than their nearest pursuers.

Chelsea, meanwhile, are back on the road to play a Premier League match away from home for the first time in three weeks.

The Blues squandered a two-goal lead at home to Leeds to draw 2-2, before they were pegged back by Burnley in their latest Premier League match.

Zian Flemming’s 93rd-minute strike saw the Clarets leave Stamford Bridge with a 1-1 draw, leaving manager Liam Rosenior’s side three points adrift of the top four in the Premier League table.

What are the best bets for Arsenal vs Chelsea?

Arsenal to win, Over 3.5 cards

There is a sense of inevitability slowly creeping into the Premier League title race, with City sustaining their challenge despite Arsenal’s best efforts.

It is the fourth time this season that these two sides will face each other, with Arsenal coming out on top in both legs of their Carabao Cup semi-final tie earlier in 2026.

Every match feels like a must-win game for Arteta’s side. And with Chelsea faltering lately, this match looks to be a good chance to defeat their London rivals once again.

Arsenal to win is the first pick of my parlay. I will add over 3.5 cards to be shown in the game.

The latter selection has been seen in four of the last five matches between these two sides and looks certain to continue given what is at stake for both sides.

Victor Gyokeres to score

For those that insist on picking a goalscorer, look no further than Victor Gyokeres. He will arrive here off the back of two goals in last weekend’s win over Tottenham.
