The match

After finishing out of Champions League qualification places in the English Premier League, Arsenal’s season hinges on this Europa League final against Chelsea at Baku. Interestingly, this is just the second all-English final in the Europa League or UEFA Cup, after the 1972 final between Tottenham and Wolves. The Gunners manager Unai Emery has a rich pedigree in the tournament having won a hat-trick of titles with Sevilla before moving to London. Should he fail to lead Arsenal to the title, next season will also see them play in the Europa League. Thankfully for them, they have a good record against London neighbours Chelsea, losing just once to them in their last eight matches in all competitions. This match is equally important for Chelsea and their manager Maurizio Sarri, who is widely tipped to leave the club in the summer. Also tipped to leave is their star player Eden Hazard, which means he will be eager to leave a mark in his last game. Having finished third in the Premier League, the Blues have already booked their spot in the next season Champions League. However, a chance to win continental silverware in his first season at the club could be a huge opportunity for Sarri and his side.

Key Statistics

Chelsea are unbeaten in this year Europa League competitions (W11, D3).
Arsenal have not won against English opponents in European competitions (D2, L4).
Arsenal remained unbeaten in seven of their last eight H2H matches (W4, D3, L1).

The bet of our experts

Both sides are missing certain regulars for this match, which makes this contest even more interesting. Arsenal will miss their Armenian winder Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who couldn’t travel due to his country’s political tensions with Azerbaijan. Aaron Ramsey and Hector Bellerin are also out of contention, but long-term injury absentee Danny Welbeck has been included in the travelling squad. For Chelsea, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Antonio Rudiger are all out due to injuries. Both sides had enough time after the end of the Premier League season to prepare for this encounter. This could be an interesting game that could go all the way.
