Arsenal Chelsea Odds : Gunners look the value to take spoils as Blues eye Champions League
This weekend’s Premier League fixtures get underway from The Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal host Chelsea in what is a massive game for both sides, but with Chelsea poised to field a weakened team with their vital Champions League fixture in Barcelona on Tuesday, punters are piling into Arsenals mouth watering price of 11/10 with Paddy Power.
The Gunners sit in third place at the moment, five points ahead of fourth place Tottenham.
The Gunners could of all but sealed their league position with a win over Wigan on Monday night, a game which most people had as an comfortable victory for Arsene Wenger’s men.

This was not case though, as Arsenal found themselves 2-0 down after eight minutes and it proved to be too bigger task as they eventually lost the game 2-1.
Before this, Wenger’s side had been in fantastic from in the league, winning nine from ten matches. This run of victories coincided with Spurs poor run of form and saw the two sides switch positions in the league.
This is the Gunners final game against a side currently in the top ten so finishing in the top three is something everyone at the club will be confident of.
However, Wenger will not be taking anything for granted and will know playing teams at the bottom is far from easy at this stage of the season.
Chelsea are a team oozing confidence and self belief at the moment, after a stunning 5-1 win over Spurs in the FA Cup semi-final at the weekend.

Roberto Di Matteo’s side then went on to beat Barcelona 1-0 at Stamford Bridge in the Champions League semi-final first leg on Wednesday.
Although they were under a lot of pressure in this game, Di Matteo’s game plan clearly worked and all his players seemed to run into the ground for him.
The Blues are still chasing a top four finish themselves so they will not go into this game thinking about the second leg at the Nou Camp.
Chelsea are just two points adrift of fourth place, with fifth place Newcastle still to play in the league it could go right to the wire.
Arsenal famously beat Chelsea 5-3 at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season. The Blues will be out for revenge this weekend, which makes it a potential Premier League Classic at the Emirates.
Kick-Off is at 12.45pm on Saturday.
