Arsenal's Bacary Sagna anticipates tough Fulham game

Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has said that his side's clash with Fulham at the Emirates on Saturday will be "massive".

The 29-year-old right-back adds that the Gunners will need to "impose" themselves on their London rivals to win the Premier League encounter.

"It's going to be a massive game against Fulham," he told Arsenal's official website. "We need to impose ourselves in our stadium.

"We want to show we can race for the title and the best way to do it is first of all to home win games. It's a home game - we want to show we are a good team. We want to bounce back from previous games.

"We drew on Tuesday [against Schalke] and we lost at Man United. We want to show we have a good team. We want to show we can be strong and we'll do it."

Both Arsenal and Fulham have 15 points from 10 matches.
