Chelsea have not beaten Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium since 2021. The last time the Blues claimed victory away against Arsenal, Kai Havertz was still a Chelsea player.
Softfootball gathered, Arsenal’s dominance over their London rivals has become increasingly clear, with the Gunners now unbeaten in 10 consecutive matches against Chelsea across all competitions. The run includes a series of league and cup encounters, highlighting Arsenal’s growing control in the fixture.
This latest defeat in the EFL Cup also carries historical significance for Chelsea. The loss means the Blues have now lost both legs of an EFL Cup semi-final for the first time since the 1990/91 season, when they were eliminated by Sheffield Wednesday.
With bragging rights firmly in Arsenal’s hands, Chelsea are left to reflect on another disappointing chapter in a rivalry that has recently tilted heavily in red.
