Arsenal vs Chelsea prediction: Kai Havertz to dominate Gunners at Emirates Stadium

Arsenal will be preparing to face a Chelsea side who will be eager to display their new look in attack at the Emirates this weekend.

The Gunners are 19/5 with Grosvenor Sport while Chelsea are the favourite at 3/4 and a draw is 11/4.

The Blues welcome back striker Romelu Lukaku who looks set to link up with Timo Werner and Kai Havertz in an attacking trio that will frustrate Pablo Mari and Ben White who are both finding their feet under Mikel Arteta.

For Arsenal, it was crucial to start the season strongly but in reality it went the complete opposite direction thanks to a Brentford side who are keen to make their case in the Premier League.

To make matters worse their main attacking threats in Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang missing out on the season opener after testing positive for coronavirus.

The European champions will be looking to end a winless run against their London rivals as they look to state their case as title contenders early on.

Tips
