Chelsea v. Arsenal

[KJS]

Big game on Sunday. I feel that if Chelsea win then Arsenal's hopes of repeating as Champs are over. The Gunners haven't shown much mettle since losing to ManU and I don't see them getting beaten Sunday, being 8 points back and making a run at Chelsea.

Will Chelsea win though? They seem the better team at this point, both in England and Champions League. With Arsenal hurting a bit in the back and Chelsea so strong in defense, I think Chelsea will prevail if they score first, but doing that at Highbury will not be easy. Neither will coming back if the Gunners strike early. I think Mourinho will play for 1-0 though, as he has shown in less important games. The fact that both played midweek may mean the game is a bit off pace. Will the fact that it was not a must-win for the Blues make a difference? Not sure.

I am a Chelsea fan, and not a recent bandwagon one, so I hope they come out on top. No matter what though, it should be a great game.

Curious to hear other's thoughts.
