Scott was snapped with huge grin on her face during the Gunners’ 4-1 win over their title rivals.
Reporter Jo Currie shared a picture of Scott using a plastic hood to shield herself from the rain.
She also wore a black scarf and grey blazer in the stands, with Currie writing: “@alexscott2 nailing the #PlastiqueChic.”
Scott’s former club handed Chelsea their first league defeat of the season in front of a record WSL crowd in North London.
Goals from Beth Mead, Amanda Ilestedt and Alessia Russo (two) sealed a comfortable home victory.
Fans had earlier hailed Scott as “total class” after she took aim at Joey Barton’s recent sexist rants.
The presenter had previously laughed off his claim that she “shouldn’t comment on the men’s game”.
Scott has been vocal in her opposition to the ex-Manchester City midfielder’s social media outbursts.

She also won 21 major trophies across three spells with Arsenal, including six league titles, seven FA Cups and the Champions League.
Scott, who was awarded an MBE for her services to football in 2017, is now fronts both Football Focus and the BBC’s WSL coverage.
