English Premier League – 2017-2018
The Fixture
The spectators of Emirates Stadium will witness the clash of two giants and it is expected to be ballistic, as Arsenal will take on Chelsea with all the firepower they have. Chelsea is currently ranked 3rd on the league table with 45 points after bagging 11 victories in the tournament. The Gunners will try to do everything secure 1 point at least even if they cannot go the extra mile for the 3 points. The fate of the home team will solely depend on the attacking trio of Alexis Sanchez, Danny Welbeck and Alexandre Lacazette as the German playmaker Mesut Ozil remains in doubt because of a knee injury he picked earlier. Wegner’s men so far only managed to secure 38 points with 11 wins of the 21 league matches they have played in the tournament. As the home team, the Gunners would have an added advantage of the supporters against The Blues who have been a very tough contender to be the league leaders.
If both the teams are analyzed on their last six team performances in the English Premier League 2017-2018 so far, then all heads would turn towards The Blues on Thursday (IST). However, it would not be wise to rule out Petr Cech and company so early because it is the beauty of English Premier League that something unpredicted can happen anytime. Whoever wins the game and even if neither of the team does, it would be worth every Euro spent on the ticket.

Expected winner:
2017 ended for Arsenal on a sad note. No Gunners fan did expect that their team will draw 1-1 with West Brom Albion on New Year’s Eve. Adding salt to their cuts was to lose out both Sead Kolasinac and Laurent Koscielny to injury. Though Gunners remain unbeaten in their last six matches, they have only won two of those. They even dropped easy points twice at the Emirates this season. Chelsea are unbeaten in five, winning four, but have won only one of their last four away from Stamford Bridge. The Blues have kept a clean sheet in their last four league matches, yet have won only one of their last four league visits to Arsenal. However, Chelsea could inflict further misery upon Arsenal here.
