The Blues are currently fourth in the Premier League, having won five of their first ten games, ahead of Arsenal on goal difference.

Despite Arsenal's recent struggles, Enzo Maresca recognises the quality of Mikel Arteta's team and how deadly they can be.

Maresca anticipates a challenging match against Mikel Arteta's team, although the Gunners have earned only one point from their last three Premier League games.

"For me, they are the closest one to Manchester City. Both, I consider them better than the rest," Maresca said.

However, the Italian tactician believes that Chelsea's current form and momentum give them a strong chance of securing a positive result.

"In this moment, the feeling from us is that we can compete and we can win against any team," he stated.

Maresca also praised the stability and experience of both Arsenal and Manchester City, highlighting the significant advantage they have over other clubs.

"One club has been working with the same manager for nine years, and the other one has been working with the same manager for five years. And this is a big, big, big, huge advantage compared to the rest," he said.

Chelsea have struggled against the Gunners in recent years but currently sit above them in the Premier League table ahead of their clash at Stamford Bridge.
