First alert for the Chelsea defense!
Launched deep by White, Havertz already flies towards Petrovic’s goal but falls at the edge of the area after a duel with Badiashile. Before the situation is analyzed, Simon Hooper signals an offside position for the German.
Let’s go to the Emirates Stadium!
Provisional leader of the Premier League, Arsenal has the opportunity to put a little more pressure on their rivals for the title, Liverpool and especially Manchester City. In the event of a victory this evening, Mikel Arteta’s men would be three points ahead of the Reds – with a largely favorable goal difference – and four over the Citizens.
But watch out for the Chelsea Blues, who remain on eight games without defeat in the league and promise to be eye-catching in this London derby.
