Chelsea, Arsenal Draw 1-1 in Premier League

Arsenal and Chelsea battled to a 1-1 draw in a London derby, leaving both clubs nine points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool. Arsenal initially took the lead with Gabriel Martinelli's goal, assisted by Martin Odegaard, who returned after a seven-match absence. However, Chelsea's Pedro Neto equalized with a stunning strike from 25 yards, marking his first Premier League goal since joining from Wolves. The result extends Arsenal's winless streak to four league matches, raising concerns about their title challenge after finishing second in the past two seasons. Chelsea, under new manager Enzo Maresca, remains positioned third in the league, showing signs of improvement despite a lack of recent victories against top teams. This draw leaves both teams reflecting on missed opportunities as they head into the international break.
