Arsenal host Chelsea at 4:30pm WAT on Sunday 6 September. It is one of two confirmed Sunday fixtures, following Everton–Manchester United at 2:00pm WAT.
Four questions matter before official lineups arrive: who controls the central lane, which side protects transitions better, whether the first press can be played through, and how the match changes after the opening goal.
This early in the season, one result does not settle a title race. It can still reveal which structure survives pressure. PitchNaija will update the match centre only when official team news is available.
