With the draw, Chelsea fans can have a sigh of relief, as the club manages to end their 30-month barren run of not finishing in the Top 3 of the Premier League season after the conclusion of a Matchday.
Since the start of the 2022/23 season, Chelsea have endured a torrid run across all competitions and few managerial changes, as the former champions have failed to find a worthy replacement of Thomas Tuchel.
Enzo Maresca's arrival at the club has brought in some much needed stability as the 'Blues' are finally functioning as a united for the first time in a while.
Arsenal Stretch Winless Run To Four Matches In Premier League 2024/25
Arsenal's last 4 matches in the Premier League 2024/25 have ended in 2 draws and 2 defeats, as the latest run of fixtures are now alarming for Mikel Arteta's side, who are in their conquest of winning a first league title in more than 20 years.
Arsenal's last title win was back in the 2003/04, where the iconic 'Invincibles' side broke series of records under the tenure of legendary manager, Arsene Wenger.
Defeats to AFC Bournemouth and Newcastle United, followed by conceding late equalisers to Chelsea and Liverpool have resulted in Gunners languishing 4th in the table, 9 points behind league-leaders Liverpool.
