Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there's no obvious winner in this fixture, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Arsenal and Chelsea will score at least a couple of goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Mikel Arteta Amatriain or Xabier Alonso Olano has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.29 equating to approximately a 75% probability.

Goal Statistics

Arsenal have been steady in front of goal of late, scoring in 18 consecutive English Premier League games. Their PG of 1.9 against Chelsea on Sunday suggests that run is likely to continue.

Arsenal's defensive record is to be admired, M. Arteta's men having conceded 1 or less in 7 consecutive English Premier League games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.0 for Chelsea makes sense in this context.
