Former Chelsea man Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has made a prediction about the Arsenal vs. the Blues match.
Hasselbaink expects his old team to pose a huge challenge to Mikel Arteta’s side’s title race.
Hasselbaink said that Chelsea are a strange kind of team, and he does not think they will lose on Sunday.
He said on Sky Sports, “The next game between Arsenal and Chelsea is one where I don’t think Arsenal will win.
“Chelsea is a unique team because they often face strong opponents and still manage to get a good result, like a draw or a win.
“They can do that. That’s just how they are. We have seen it. I believe the match against Arsenal will be a lot tougher than the one against Spurs.
“Perhaps Arsenal and City are both on the same number of points. Then we find out who is willing to take part.”
While Hasselbaink predicted a problem for the Gunners this weekend, he still thinks they will win the title.
He also said that he believes they are the favourites and that they are going to win because they have the best team.
“But I always thought they were winning when they were at Spurs, even with the pressure. I never expected Spurs to even get a draw, especially after the Wolves game, because when Arsenal have something to prove, they usually make it happen.”
Since Liam Rosenior took over at Stamford Bridge, the Blues have not lost a single league match, winning four and drawing two.
