Mikel Arteta bust-up that nearly saw ex-Chelsea boss pass judgment on Bukayo Saka

Arsenal and Chelsea lock horns again in the Premier League on Tuesday night - and the Gunners will be hoping for a repeat of the reverse fixture as they battle to keep their title dream alive.

Mikel Arteta's side ran out 1-0 winners against the Blues at Stamford Bridge and will head into this rearranged clash as heavy favourites despite their recent poor form.

Intriguingly, Arteta will pit his wits against a different coach this time around, with Frank Lampard currently in position as Chelsea's caretaker manager following the departure of Graham Potter. And that might be just as well, as the two became embroiled in a bitter bust-up involving Bukayo Saka back in November.
