Arsenal failed to produce a winner against 10-man Chelsea, who picked up a notable 1-1 draw with the Premier League leaders at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

Moises Caicedo was then sent off, via the VAR, for a late challenge on Mikel Merino. Piero Hincapie, who started alongside Cristhian Mosquera at centre-back for Arsenal in place of the injured William Saliba, caught Trevoh Chalobah with his arm shortly after and was booked.

Arsenal lined up in a Premier League game without either Gabriel or William Saliba for just the second time in 162 games on Sunday after an injury to the Frenchman.

Enzo Maresca lauded his side’s showing on Tuesday, and the Italian is aiming to better another Pep Guardiola disciple in Mikel Arteta for the first time this weekend. Arteta’s Gunners lead the Premier League by six points and asserted themselves as Europe’s strongest unit by beating Bayern Munich 3–1 on Wednesday.
