Arsenal Vs Chelsea: Bukayo Saka set to equal personal goal record
As Chelsea move to avoid equalling an unwanted single season record
Bukayo Saka will be seeking to score his third goal in eight Premier League games against Chelsea who visit the Emirates stadium Tuesday night for a
matchweek 34 Premier League fixture.
Saka has been one of Arsenal’s best players this season and the Nigeria-born England international has netted 30 times in 130 Premier League games since he
made his debut in the competition in January 2019.
Two of the goals have come in seven games against the west London side who have lost their last two games against the Gunners
If he scores on Tuesday, it will be his third against Chelsea and the joint most he has scored against any team in the Premier League after netting three
times in seven appearances.
Saka has been directly involved in 16 goals in 16 Premier League home games (9 goals, 7 assists).
The 21 year old will also be helping Arsenal to secure a three consecutive league wins against Chelsea for the first time since February 2004.
Arsenal could achieve their second league double in three seasons against the Blues, having done so just once in the previous 20 campaigns.
Meanwhile, Chelsea, on a free fall this season will be aiming not to equal an unwated record set some 35 years ago.
The Blues have lost 19 games in total this season, last losing 20 in a single campaign in 1987/88.
