Emirates Stadium
Emirates Stadium has been Arsenal's home since 2006, replacing the legendary Highbury after 93 years. Located in Holloway, North London, the stadium holds approximately 60,704 supporters, making it the fourth-largest in the Premier League. The modern arena features the famous "Arsenalisation" project which brought iconic elements from Highbury, including statues of club legends Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Tony Adams, plus the relocated Highbury clock. The stadium is easily accessible via Arsenal tube station on the Piccadilly line or Finsbury Park and Highbury & Islington on the Victoria line. The club is exploring expansion plans to increase capacity beyond 70,000 as part of its 20th anniversary celebrations in 2026.
Head-to-Head Record
This is one of English football's most compelling rivalries, with over 210 meetings since 1907. Arsenal hold the overall advantage with 86 wins to Chelsea's 66, with 62 draws. In Premier League encounters, the Gunners lead with 27 victories compared to 20 for Chelsea. Arsenal have been dominant in recent years, going unbeaten in their last eight Premier League games against Chelsea and their last ten in all competitions. That run includes a memorable 5-0 demolition at Emirates Stadium in April 2024 when Kai Havertz scored twice against his former club. The Gunners also defeated Chelsea over two legs in the 2025-26 EFL Cup semi-final to reach Wembley. Chelsea's record win in this fixture was a 6-0 thrashing at Stamford Bridge in March 2014, while Didier Drogba holds the record for most goals in this derby with 13.
Last Meeting: Chelsea 1-1 Arsenal (November 30, 2025)
The most recent encounter was a fiery affair at Stamford Bridge that showcased the intense rivalry between these London clubs. Chelsea dominated the opening period before Moises Caicedo was sent off in the 38th minute for a dangerous studs-up challenge on Mikel Merino. Despite being reduced to ten men, the Blues showed incredible resilience. Trevoh Chalobah headed Chelsea into the lead just after half-time, glancing Reece James' corner past David Raya. Arsenal responded through Merino, who headed in Bukayo Saka's cross on 59 minutes to level the score. The Gunners pushed hard for a winner but Chelsea's defence held firm, with Robert Sanchez making crucial late saves. The physical encounter saw five yellow cards in the first half alone, reflecting the intensity of this London derby. The draw extended Arsenal's unbeaten run against Chelsea in all competitions.
Arsenal 2025/26 Season
Under Mikel Arteta's guidance, Arsenal are mounting their strongest title challenge in two decades. After three consecutive runner-up finishes, the pressure to finally claim that elusive first Premier League title since 2004 has never been greater. The summer signing of Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting CP for £63.7 million has added firepower to an already potent attack, while Bukayo Saka continues to be the creative heartbeat of the team. Martin Odegaard's leadership in midfield, combined with the defensive solidity of William Saliba and the summer acquisition Piero Hincapie, has made Arsenal formidable. The Gunners have also added depth with signings including Martin Zubimendi, Eberechi Eze, Noni Madueke and Christian Norgaard, demonstrating their ambition to compete on all fronts.
Chelsea 2025/26 Season
Chelsea have experienced a turbulent season under various managers, with Liam Rosenior now at the helm following Enzo Maresca's departure. The Blues remain in contention for Champions League qualification despite their inconsistency. Cole Palmer has been the standout performer when fit, while Joao Pedro, Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho have contributed important goals. The young talent Estevao has shown flashes of brilliance, though Chelsea's discipline has been a concern with four red cards already this season - twice as many as any other club. Chelsea have won just once against Arsenal in their last 15 meetings, highlighting the shift in power in this London rivalry.
