Chelsea face their toughest test of the campaign so far when visiting champions Arsenal at Emirates Stadium for Sunday’s primetime game.
The Blues have made the perfect start under Xabi Alonso, with frenetic and high-scoring victories over Fulham and Brighton & Hove Albion raising spirits in west London. However, tangling with England’s best team is a different proposition altogether, especially given Chelsea have won just one of their last 16 matches in this fixture.
