Having halted their early season crisis with a 3-0 win over Bournemouth at the Emirates on Saturday, Arsene Wenger and Arsenal side straight back in the deep-end this weekend with a visit to Premier League champions Chelsea.

The Gunners, who lost two of their opening three games this season, have a poor record at Stamford Bridge in recent years, having not won in west London since a 5-3 thriller in 2011.

Despite having won three of the last four meetings between the two clubs, Arsenal are the clear underdogs to Antonio Conte’s side.

However, as the recent wins over their London rivals show, Wenger’s players do have enough about them to secure a result against the champions.
