Arsenal v Chelsea Predictions for Wednesday's 8.00pm kick-off Carabao Cup fixture at the Emirates Stadium as Chelsea are travelling to the Emirates on Wednesday to battle for a placed in the League Cup final at Wembley, having already played out three draws with the Gunners this season.
Moreover, that run of disappointments started from a 3-2 success in the reverse fixture - in which the departed Alexis Sanchez scored a brace - against Roy Hodgson's Palace on 28 December, and included draws with Chelsea and a defeat by Bournemouth (D4 L2).
Similarly, Chelsea also broke out of their sequence of draw results counting five of them in all competitions after Antonio Conte's Blues shipped four unreturned goals against Brighton last weekend.
When it comes to studying the sides' home and away forms, the home advantage looks rather favourable for the Gunners with them losing just once and winning 14 of 18 competitive home games all season, as the Blues have been struggling on the road so far, winning just two from the last seven trips - which has seen them effectively fall three points behind Man United to the runner-ups spot.
Chelsea: Christensen, Courtois, Drinkwater, Cahill, Fabregas.
