The Gunners and Spurs are off to good starts this season, head-to-head having only failed to win two matches each, and one of those came against each other last weekend when they drew. Arsenal have ground to make up on leaders Manchester City early on, while Tottenham will be hopeful of a top four-competing campaign amid a bright start to life under Ange Postecoglou.
Chelsea wish they could say the same under Mauricio Pochettino, but poor form from last season has carried on into this campaign so far.
The Blues have won just once in the Premier League so far, but they haven’t been helped by injuries, with new striker Christopher Nkunku out for months, while a number of other players are also sidelined currently.
Chelsea face local rivals Fulham this weekend, while Arsenal face Bournemouth and Tottenham take on high-flyers Liverpool, but how do each of the London clubs’ injury situations look?
