Our prediction: Arsenal v Chelsea
The most damning part of Arsenal's defeat to Brentford is that nobody was particularly surprised by it – nobody was shocked.
The Gunners – who had started to pride themselves on defensive stability – conceded a second goal that would've made Sunday League stalwarts blush.
The atmosphere could quickly turn toxic on Sunday if Chelsea find the net early on. Arteta is running out of time to prove he can turn Arsenal into a team capable of competing with the likes of Chelsea once again.
Our prediction: Arsenal 1-2 Chelsea (17/2 at bet365)
