Even though the performance conditions of the two teams are very different at the moment, but I am sure Arsenal will not easily secure full points when they face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. No one doubts Arsenal's abilities so far because they are still quite consistent until the eighth week. But I predict the match will end in a draw, the reason is because Chelsea has shown good results in the last three matches and the match will also take place at Stamford bridge.

It is still too early to say that Pochettino has failed to make Chelsea more competitive in the EPL because they still have quite a lot of matches to play. Usually the teams currently in the top 10 will lose consistency in the second half of the season and only a few strong teams will survive. So there is still a chance for Pochettino to show team improvement and they will still be chasing the top five this season.

Regarding the London derby in my opinion there are only two possibilities; one of the two could lose or both could draw.
Arsenal are certainly the favorites because of their performance so far, but Chelsea cannot be underestimated at all even though they are only in 12th position in the standings. Chelsea is playing at home, that is something that can be exploited to perform better and win the match.

I don't think people will be worried if Chelsea loses to Arsenal, but what is worried is if Chelsea can beat Arsenal. So far, Chelsea has also performed poorly in home matches, winning only 1 of 4 matches. Chelsea have suffered two defeats at home, but I think they will avoid a third defeat this week for the derby. Arsenal is the favorite, but Chelsea cannot be said to be bad.
