Mikel Arteta says Arsenal will be looking to exploit the weaknesses of Chelsea rather than focusing on the specific threat posed by Cole Palmer. Arteta takes his side to west London after suffering two away defeats in the space of four days - firstly at Newcastle United in the Premier League and then against Inter in the Champions League.

Mikel Arteta admits he has made a mistake by not playing Raheem Sterling in Arsenal’s last two defeats. Sterling, who joined on loan from Chelsea in the summer transfer window, was left as an unused substitute in Arsenal’s 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United at St James’ Park last Saturday.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has said they have a plan to stop Chelsea's Cole Palmer when both sides meet in the London derby. Palmer has scored seven goals this term.
