Hector Bellerin, as a result, believes that their confidence is building up heading towards the Chelsea clash. He said:<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n

\u201cAfter the four games that we\u2019ve played, there\u2019s been a lot of doubts in the team and I think it\u2019s a game where we can put those things to bed.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re playing Chelsea and we\u2019ve beaten them three times in the last four games. So, we have a good record against them, but we know it\u2019s always different playing at Stamford Bridge. They won the league last year so we obviously know they are a very strong team.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWith [Antonio] Conte there, they work really hard, they do very well tactically, so we have to be ready for the challenge and we know as a team we can beat them because we\u2019ve done it before. Now it\u2019s up to us to turn up and do things right.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Furthermore, he added:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve come [into this game] from beating Bournemouth with a very good team performance, especially defensively, which is what was lacking in the last two games. The team was really solid at the back, but the good thing was that from the striker to the goalkeeper, everyone was running in the same direction.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThat was missing from the last few games. We just need to play in the same way we\u2019ve played before against Chelsea, in the FA Cup or in the Community Shield. We know that the team\u2019s really strong, but we know that when we play 100 percent and everyone turns up, we know we can beat them.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Arsenal defeated Chelsea in the FA Cup finals, 2017. Also, they defeated them in community shield in a penalty shoot-out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
