Former Arsenal striker Alan Smith has said the Gunners will beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Gunners head into the weekend with two fantastic results at the Emirates. They first beat rivals Tottenham 4-1 in the North London derby last Sunday before beating Bayern Munich 3-1 in a dominant Champions League performance on Wednesday.

They sit at the top of the Premier League table and are currently favorites to win the league title. However, they also have challengers as Chelsea are currently in second place, six points behind the Gunners.

Enzo Maresca’s side beat Burnley last weekend and then managed an impressive 3-0 win over Barcelona in the Champions League on Tuesday night. So it won’t be an easy game for Mikel Arteta’s team, especially as they play at Stamford Bridge.

Former Arsenal striker Alan Smith has predicted Arsenal will win 2-1 against the Blues on Sunday. He told GoonerNews via BestBettingSitesUK: “I was calling for Arsenal to win 2-1. Chelsea got a great win last night [against Barcelona]not true? And beat Burnley last time out in the league. So this will be interesting.

“It will be interesting to assess where Chelsea are. I don’t see them as title contenders, but who knows? They will gain confidence, especially after the win against Barcelona. So it would be a good thing. I still think Arsenal are likely to emerge as narrow winners.”
