Cesc Fabregas admits Arsenal face Chelsea on Sunday looking to get their Premier League title challenge back on track.

The Gunners tackle their London rivals - live on Sky Sports 1 & HD1 - in poor form, having lost three of their last four top-flight matches.

Chelsea, meanwhile, sit top of the table and have suffered defeat just once in their opening 14 league games of the campaign.

But new Arsenal captain Fabregas is refusing to give up hope of lifting the title this term and has rallied his team-mates ahead of the trip to Stamford Bridge.

The Spain international said: "We want to get back into the title race, so we have to win.

"We could get some points back. The other teams have difficult games as well. We will see.

"Chelsea have been playing really well, the times I watched them, they have played good football with quick combinations. I respect them.

"(But) Arsenal never go anywhere for a draw. We always go to win and Chelsea do the same. At the end of the season, we will see what we can achieve but at the moment we are in every competition.

"People can say whatever they want about the title race but we have only played 14 games. It is not over yet."
