London derby in Baku

This Wednesday Chelsea and Arsenal will take part to the show of the Europa League final. Chelsea, Europa League’s winner in 2012/13, reached this final having conceded only one defeat in 12 official matches (7 wins, 4 draws, 1 defeat), including a win on penalties against Eintracht Frankfurt got in the semi-final of this competition.

The “Blues” risk having to give up N’Golo Kantè due to a knee injury accurred in last training session last Saturday, not a small thing for Maurizio Sarri who will already have to do without Rudiger, Loftus-Cheek and Hudson-Odoi.

The Spanish Gunners coach dreams to win the fourth Europa League of his career after the trio with Sevilla between 2013 and 2016, setting a record for the competition.

The ‘Gunners’ have never won a match in a European competition against another English team (2 draws, 4 defeats), including a defeat against Chelsea, however they can boast a record in direct matches against the “Blues” in the last eight official matches played in all competitions (4 wins, 3 draws, 1 defeat).

Let’s beat the bookies!
