Chelsea's confidence will certainly be further strengthened after the 3-0 victory over Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League.
This was the Blues' biggest win against the Catalan representative in the history of the tournament. At the same time, Chelsea also became the third team to beat Barcelona at least five times in the Champions League, after Bayern Munich (10 times) and Paris Saint-Germain (6 times).
However, an even bigger challenge awaits Enzo Maresca's team as they prepare to welcome Premier League leaders Arsenal in the big match between two of the strongest teams in England at the moment.
The "Gunners" are on the rise under the leadership of Mikel Arteta and enter the match with high confidence. Especially after impressive performances against Tottenham and Bayern Munich since returning after the international break.
Although Chelsea once reaffirmed their position as "the pride of London" with the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 championship, Arsenal is currently the number one team in the capital.
Since the start of the 2022-23 season, Arsenal have lost just three of their 40 Premier League London derbies (W28 D9). Notably, they have only suffered one away defeat in that time a 1-2 loss to Fulham in December 2023.
Chelsea have won just one of their last 11 Premier League games against Arsenal (D3 L7) and are unknown the taste of a win in seven consecutive games since a 2-0 win at the Emirates in August 2021 (D2 L5).
