After a dull 0-0 draw in the first leg, the tie will be set for the match at the Emirates for a spot in the EFL cup final. At VBet Sportsbook, Arsenal vs Chelsea betting odds are in favor of the visitors, to progress to Wembley stadium.

  • Which team goes in with more chance?
  • Who has had the better result so far?
  • Will Arsenal have a different squad to the current players wearing the red kit?

Arsene Wenger will come up against Antonio Conte with confidence following his side’s clean-sheet away from home. With speculation floating around the Arsenal squad, this puts the question, will Alexis Sanchez be in the team selection for the 24th of January?

Funnily enough, Chelsea have also joined the race for the signature of the Chilean so possibly he could feature in the game wearing blue. Surely even Wenger could not be that thick to sell Sanchez to their semi-finalist rivals!

Defensive rock or a lack of goals? Let’s break down the first-leg

The EFL cup is not the same as most cups you would expect to find in a league. Sure it has two-legs in the semi-finals but the away goals are only counted after extra-time. This makes the tie all the more interesting.

The 0-0 draw showed some special characteristic to online sportsbook news in the UK:

  • Arsenal can defend and cut out chances when they are properly motivated to
  • Chelsea lack any real threat in front of goal

One week before that…

Moving away from the first leg, it was just a week before that when the teams faced-off in this identical situation, in the league. Arsenal took the lead in the second half, Chelsea then equalized and scored a late goal, in the dying seconds Arsenal then equalized in a 2-2 draw at the Emirates.
