This is a must-have pick for Sunday - a bet against ever troubled Arsenal facing one of the main title contenders Chelsea, who should give Man City a real fight in the upcoming season.

Hosts have numerous issues before the match and are seriously weakened on the offensive end. Most resources, including English “The Guardian” expect Arsenal to be short of both Lacazette and Aubameyang, although the latter is reportedly now C-19 negative.

They are definitely going to miss newly signed Odegaard as he is expecting a visa clearance by August 28; central defender Gabrial is out with a knee injury and defensive mid Partey with ankle problems - both until September.

It’s fair to say that Arsenal have started the new season already in crisis and underlined all their ongoing issues with the 0-2 defeat vs. promoted Brentford a week ago.

Chelsea is diametrically opposite to their today’s opponent. Tuchel’s job at the club is nothing short of exceptional and after having won the Champions League their eyes are surely focused on the Premier League title.

Massive summer signing Lukaku is expected to make his first appearance since return to Stamford Bridge. Belgians arrival has to take Chelsea’s attacking end to a whole new level (as if it wasn’t lethal enough already).

There is slight concern over Kante’s participation in the game, but it seems the Frenchman has to be given the green light to feature.

The call for Chelsea’s win looks as one of the most obvious, inevitable, bets. There is not a single argument to support Arsenal and their chances of taking anything from the game. However, fair warning, every team has its price and value wise, of course, the offer is not outstanding, yet, still worth the money.

这是周日的最佳投注——陷入困境的阿森纳面对冠军头衔的主要竞争者之一切尔西，后者应该在即将到来的赛季中与曼城进行一场真正的战斗。

主队在赛前有很多问题，在进攻端被严重削弱。大多数资源，包括英国《卫报》，都预计阿森纳将缺少拉卡泽特和奥巴梅扬，尽管据报道后者现在感染了新冠。

他们肯定会缺少新签下的奥德加德，因为他期待在 8 月 28 日之前获得签证；中后卫加布里亚尔因膝伤缺阵，防守中后卫帕蒂因脚踝问题缺阵——两者都将持续到 9 月。

公平地说，阿森纳在新赛季开始时已经陷入危机，他们在一周前以 0-2 输给了升班马布伦特福德。

切尔西与阿森纳截然相反。图赫尔在俱乐部的工作非常出色，而且在赢得冠军之后联赛他们的目光肯定集中在英超联赛冠军上。

预计夏季签下的卢卡库将在重返斯坦福桥后首次亮相。比利时人的到来必须将切尔西的进攻端提升到一个全新的水平（好像这还不够致命）。

人们对坎特参加比赛略有担忧，但似乎必须给这位法国人开绿灯才能出场。

切​​尔西获胜看起来是佳的选择。没有任何理由支持阿森纳，他们很难从比赛中拿走积分。
