Chelsea vs Arsenal score prediction
Arsenal dominated proceedings when the pair met in the WSL in January, creating a whole host of opportunities, only to concede a last gasp Sam Kerr equaliser after failing to put the game to bed.
That seems to be the Chelsea way at the moment: they have been so good at getting the job done this term regardless of performance, and the Blues could just edge it on Sunday.
