Chelsea hosts Arsenal in round 36 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Wednesday, May 12th at Stamford Bridge (London)
Chelsea continues to amaze. With the arrival of Thomas Tuchel, the team has changed for the better both in terms of the game and results. In the middle of the last week, the Londoners dealt with Real Madrid and advanced to the Champions League final. And then the Pensioners postponed the champion’s title of Manchester City in the English Premier League. Chelsea gained a comeback victory over the Citizens at the Etihad Stadium (1-2), completely outplaying their opponents in the second half. Thus, Tuchel and his men beat Manchester City for the second time in a month. At the end of May, the Pensioners will face the Citizens in the Champions League final. Thanks to three consecutive victories in the Premier League, Chelsea players have displaced Leicester from the third line of the standings.

The situation in the camp of a rival is opposite. Arsenal failed to make it to the Europa League final, losing to Villarreal, which is headed by the former coach of the Gunners, Unai Emery. As for the English Premier League, the 2020/2021 season can be considered a failure. There are only mathematical chances to get hold of a place in the European Cups, but in this case the Gunners should win all the matches, and the neighbors have to allow one misfire after another. This is unlikely to happen, as Liverpool, Tottenham, and West Ham know where their interests lie, and Everton will still intervene in the fight. Not getting into European cups will again hit the financial component of Arsenal, and the club's management may think about changing the vector of the team's development in the summer. It is far from certain that Mikel Arteta will continue to work with the Gunners.
To put it bluntly, Chelsea is showing a better and more stable game than Arsenal. In a short period of time, without changing the lineup, Tuchel brought the Blues to a higher level. The Gunners lack confidence, stability, and teamwork. In the current season, the Reds have already lost 13 Premier League games. It’s a too high number of failures for a team with high goals. Frank Lampard and his Pensioners lost to the Gunners in the first head-to-head match of the current season. Tuchel can take revenge instead of his colleague. Chelsea has not yet secured a place in the TOP-4, so the team needs to score points. And it will probably manage to gain at least a draw in its usual pragmatic manner.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win with +0.5 handicap and Under 3.5 goals scored
