Torres confident of Chelsea victory over Arsenal

Fernando Torres suggests that Chelsea are well-placed to beat Arsenal on Monday night.

The fifth-placed Blues head to the Emirates Stadium to meet the third-placed Gunners and the Spanish striker is of the belief that Jose Mourinho's men know how to get the job done in north London.

"We know how important it is for us. It's a chance to overtake them in the table and we know how important that is for the fans," Torres told the club's official website.

"We're playing Arsenal, and it's a huge game for both sets of fans.

"We've beaten them once this season at the Emirates, so we know what we need to do to win there.

"We just have to ensure we prepare for the game the best we can, and I'm sure we can go and do it."
