Chelsea vs Arsenal : Match Preview, team news | Premier League Footba

 The age old London Club Rivalry back in action at the Stamford Bridge, a key game for Chelsea to ensure Champions league football while Arsenal will play for pride to be the best in the city

If there is a most successful club in the Primer League Era from London, Chelsea has rightfully cemented their place on top of other rivals from London majorly Arsenal and Spurs. This year under Thomas Tuchel Chelsea have transformed completely with being in the Champions league Finals, FA Cup Finals and now looking to end their season in top 4 of the Primer league table. They will host Arsenal who are currently 9th in the league table and will have nothing to fight for against Chelsea but their pride, Mikel Arteta has come under a lot of criticism for his side's performances this season in particular the Europa League exit in semi - finals against Villareal at home.


Arsenal have had a poor season with no hopes of European Football next season they would like to go all the way in on the London Derby against Tuchel's Chelsea, but the task looks ever so uphill with Mikel Arteta clearly can not match Tuchel's tactical set up and another downside for Arsenal is that Chelsea at the moment have better set of talented players and a good squad which has performed very well this season, talking about Thomas Tuchel he has beat the likes of Jurgen Klopp, Guardiola, Pochetinho, Jose Mourinho, Ronald Koeman, Zidane with an impressive defensive record conceding just a goal, Thomas Tuchel have grew into his role and will look to take advantage of the fixture against Arsenal to cement their position in the top 4 of the Premier league table as things can go south if they are not concentrated enough and derbies are always different.

Chelsea Team News : Christensen and Kovacic are out injured but Chelsea have replacements in place with their squad dept, Zouma replaces Christensen and Kovacic position is well cemented by Kante who has been their key player in the middle of the field.
Speaking in the press conference Thomas Tuchel was spoke highly of Arsenal Captain Aubameyang who previously played under him Dortmund.

" We are still in touch and exchange messages. In some ways, he will still always be my player, so I want him to succeed and have a good time wherever he is".

" Auba was a fantastic striker, a fantastic finisher on the pitch, But more than that he was a fantastic worker off the pitch".

Aubameyang scored 79 times in 95 appearnces under Thomas Tuchel at Dortmund and was rumored to join him at PSG after the manager left Germany to manage PSG in France, it will be a reunion of player and a manger who did achieve success and have a good relationship till this day.

Arsenal Team News :  Pablo Mari and David Luiz will be assessed before the game but Xhaka is out due to injury, Aubameyang and Lacazette have made it back to fitness and will be on team sheet

Arsenal Boss Mikel Arteta said before the game 

" Well Chelsea have been best team in the league in last few months, what Thomas has achieved is exceptional".

He also spoke on transfer plans next summer " We've been sitting down the whole year, we will have changes, some things will stick to plan. But we do sit down very regularly to talk about this things".


 

 

Match Prediction : Well the big talks have not helped Arsenal so far from this season and it is a surprise that Mikel Arteta still has a job on his hand after such a poor performance this season, well if he wishes to revive his job chances for next summer surely a win against Chelsea in derby will have a big say in such a decision, while its easier said then done against the Chelsea team who beat Man City the Premier League champions at home by 2-1 so a win is predicted in favour of Chelsea, they win the London Derby by 3-1 maybe even more if Arsenal players lose their heads.
