Arsenal v Chelsea Betting Form

Arsenal’s gap in the title race has reduced significantly compared to earlier in the season. A 4-1 demolition of Spurs in the North London derby was enough to send the Gunners 5 points clear of chasing Manchester City. Chelsea are the next visitors to the Emirates, a place where they haven’t taken any points from since their 2-0 win back in 2021.

Arsenal League Form

DRAW: Wolves 2-2 Arsenal, 18^th February 2026
DRAW: Brentford 1-1 Arsenal, 12^th February 2026

Chelsea come into this fixture having taken two points in their last two games against Burnley and Leeds. They still find themselves sitting 5^th in the table, but form needs to improve if they are to secure a Champions League spot, especially with other teams around them finding their feet with roughly a third of the season left to play.

ARSENAL V CHELSEA FOOTBALL SPREAD BETTING PRICES

Our football spread betting prices have the Goal Supremacy as Arsenal / Chelsea at 0.9–1.1. This means a ‘buy’ bet at 1.1 would need Arsenal to win by two goals in order to start turning a profit (e.g. a two-goal win would win 0.9× your stake, a three-goal win 1.9× your stake, a four-goal win 2.9× your stake, etc.).

A 0.9 ‘sell’ bet would need either a draw, or Chelsea to win, to turn a profit (e.g. a draw would win 0.9× your stake, and a Chelsea win by one goal would win 1.9× your stake, etc.).

Our spread betting Total Goals line is 2.9–3.1. This means a 3.1 ‘buy’ bet would need at least four goals to be scored in the match to start turning a profit. Conversely, a 2.9 ‘sell’ bet would need two goals or fewer to be scored in the match to turn a profit (three goals would result in a small loss of 0.1× your stake).

Remember that with spread betting, get the bet wrong and losses can exceed your stake/deposit. For example, a 3.1 ‘buy’ Total Goals bet would lose 3.1× your stake if the match ended 0–0. In the 1.1 ‘buy’ Supremacy bet example above, if the game ended a draw, the bet would lose 1.1× your stake. If Chelsea won by one goal, then it would lose 2.1× your stake, etc. And in the 0.9 ‘sell’ Supremacy example above, the bet would lose 0.1× your stake on a 1–0 Arsenal win, 1.1× your stake on a 2–0 Arsenal win, etc.

Our Player Goal Minutes market will be live around 24 hours before kick-off.
