Arsenal will go into this match sitting top of the form table whilst the Blues are sitting top of the actual table and look odds-on to claim the Premier League championship for the fourth time, and earning their fifth league title.
Chelsea are ten points clear of Arsenal in second but Arsenal will be keen to get something out of the match with Manchester United breathing down their necks in third.
The last defeat suffered by Chelsea was on the 1st January in another derby match against Spurs in a 5-3 thriller. Spurs also provided Arsenal with their last defeat by 2-1 on the 7th February.
The last time the two teams met at the Emirates ended in a 0-0 draw despite Arsenal enjoying 61% possession Chelsea had more shots on goal but that was back December 2013.
Chelsea will be buoyed by their defeat of Manchester United by the single Hazard goal on 38 minutes as their defence held firm in a hard-earned victory last weekend.
Mourinho will have issues again upfront and will hope that Diego Costa or Loic Remy pass fit with Drogba picking up an ankle injury. Remy was rated as having a 50 percent chance of playing against United by Mourinho, who will be praying for a better prognosis.
In the Mourinho v Wenger stakes the numbers stack up somewhat better for the Blues boss who has achieved 7 wins to 0 with 5 draws and how dearly would Wenger love to finally beat his old rival.
One thing for certain is you can expect the usual verbal duels in the days to come and whilst Arsenal are arguably on better form with less to worry about with their strikers this will be a tough encounter. Chelsea did grind out a result against another form team last weekend and Arsenal do sometimes expose themselves to the counter-attack which will not be lost on Mourinho.
A victory for Chelsea will mean they can finish the job and clinch the title with victory against Leicester just three days later.
