The teams of Arsenal and Chelsea face each other in a postponed match of the 29th round of the English Premier League. At this stage of the season, only a win over their big city rival suits Mikel Arteta’s Gunners. However, their opponent has a curious opportunity to participate in the European club tournaments in the next campaign, which will further motivate them for good performances at the Emirates. The sports event is available for betting on inbet and will take place on April 23 at 22:00.
Arsenal is the leader in the provisional standings with 74 points. However, such a claim is subject to a huge question mark, as third-placed Manchester City is a point less and a match passive. All this leaves Arteta’s graduates without an alternative, who a week ago made a very unpleasant mistake at home against Aston Villa. Thus, the “gunners” no longer hold fate in their own hands, hoping for mistakes of their main opponents.
A positive sign of improvement came on Saturday night when a difficult visit to Wolverhampton was won. However, it will hardly erase the disappointment of what happened against Villa, as well as the elimination from the Champions League at the quarter-final stage, where Bayern (Munich) traditionally turned out to be “Mission: Impossible”.
Chelsea made their season without a trophy official after crashing out in the FA Cup semi-finals. The Blues once again put up a serious fight against Manchester City, but a late goal by Bernardo Silva deprived them of a fight for Wembley honors.
However, it is impossible not to note the rise in the game of the team from “Stamford Bridge”, which has not lost for the championship for more than a month and a half. The stable results of the team made it so that it was a real contender for participation in the European club tournaments and the campaign did not seem so much a failure for Pochettino and company. The Blues are currently just three points behind sixth-placed Newcastle, and even have a game in hand over the Geordies. All this will make them ambitious not to let off the gas pedal until the final chords of the 2023/24 season.
Arsenal are on a five game unbeaten run against Chelsea. In the ninth round of this championship, Bukayo Saka and his teammates drew 2:2 with their city opponent, thus ending their streak of four consecutive successes over the “blues”. If we do not count one friendly match in 2021. Chelsea’s last victory against Arsenal dates back to the end of 2019, when the team won at the Emirates with 2:1.
The hosts will be without the Japanese Tomiyasu, who has health problems. For Chelsea, the number of injured is slightly more impressive: Reece James, Cowley, Lavia, Nkunku, Ugochukwu and Wesley Fofana.

A potential tie at the Emirates, where Simon Hooper will be the referee, is priced at 4.85. Inbet offers MEGABOOST odds for individual markets on this sporting event. Among them are the options:
