Arsenal and Chelsea will put their unbeaten starts to the Premier League season on the line when they meet in a London derby on Sunday, with both sides having won their opening two matches.
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal arrive in particularly strong form. The Gunners have collected six points from their first two league games and are yet to concede a goal.
Their campaign began with a commanding 3-0 victory over Coventry. Arsenal then followed that result with a narrow 1-0 win away to Aston Villa, maintaining their perfect record while extending their run without conceding.
Chelsea have also taken maximum points from their opening fixtures. The team managed by Xabi Alonso began with a 3-2 victory against Fulham before securing another high-scoring success, beating Brighton 4-3.
Those results mean both clubs enter the derby with a 100% record. Arsenal’s early form has been built on defensive solidity, while Chelsea have produced 12 goals across their two matches, although they have conceded five.
The match will begin at 18:30 Moscow time on Sunday.

The meeting brings together two London teams who have made identical starts in terms of results, but with contrasting scorelines. Arsenal have won by a combined 4-0, keeping clean sheets in both games, while Chelsea’s victories have featured 12 goals in total.
For Arteta’s side, the priority will be to continue the defensive consistency shown against Coventry and Aston Villa. Arsenal have taken all six available points and remain unbreached after two rounds.
Chelsea, meanwhile, will aim to carry the attacking momentum from their wins over Fulham and Brighton into the derby. Their opening two matches have both been close, with the side prevailing by one goal on each occasion.
With both teams still perfect, Sunday’s fixture offers an early meeting between two of the Premier League’s leading sides. Arsenal will seek to protect their unbeaten and unscored-against start, while Chelsea will attempt to make it three wins from three and maintain their own 100% record.
