Arsenal New Year's Day match against London title rivals Chelsea at Highbury is a "massive game" according to Gunners' boss Arsene Wenger.
Champions and leaders Arsenal go into the match five points clear of second-placed Chelsea following a 1-1 draw at home to fellow title rivals Liverpool.
"It's a massive game for us," Wenger told Monday's edition of the London Evening Standard.
"I expect Chelsea to attack us more than Liverpool did.
"It will be a more open game and after just losing two points it's a match we want to win," the Frenchman added.
But while defeat may signal the end of Chelsea's push for a first top flight title since the 1954-55 season, Wenger knows that victory will not guarantee Arsenal another Premiership crown.
