Chelsea vs Arsenal preview and predictions

A detailed look at the upcoming Chelsea vs. Arsenal match, covering predictions, probable lineups, and critical match details.

According to a report from FotMob, the highly anticipated London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal is set to take place at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, November 30, 2025, at 16:30 UTC.

The clash pits the top two sides in the Premier League against each other, with Arsenal looking to extend their lead over the resurgent Blues.

Chelsea, who are second in the table following a run of three straight victories without conceding, are fresh off an impressive 3–0 win over Barcelona in the Champions League on Tuesday.

The hosts have scored 11 goals in their last 5 matches and have not suffered a loss in 6 matches.

Manager Enzo Maresca has a strong squad but remains without Levi Colwill, Roméo Lavia, and Dário Essugo due to injury.

The predicted Chelsea lineup (4-2-3-1) features: Sánchez; Gusto, Fofana, Chalobah, Cucurella; James, Caicedo; Estêvão, Fernández, Neto; Pedro.

League leaders Arsenal are coming off a 3–1 victory over Bayern Munich and boast the most clean sheets in the competition (7).

The Gunners also hold a strong head-to-head record against their rivals, having not lost to Chelsea in their last 8 meetings (6W, 2D).

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta praised the opposition, stating that Chelsea are “one of the teams I enjoy watching the most” and believes they “fully deserve” to be in the Premier League title race.

In terms of team news for the visitors, Viktor Gyökeres is unlikely to be available to start, while Leandro Trossard is a doubt after sustaining a knock on Wednesday.

The predicted Arsenal lineup (4-3-3) is: Raya; Timber, Saliba, Hincapié, Calafiori; Zubimendi, Rice, Ødegaard; Saka, Merino, Eze.

FotMob has predicted a 1-1 result for this match, although considers that Arsenal has the edge and would be more likely to come away with a win should the game not end in a stalemate.
