Chelsea's Marko Marin confident of winning against Arsenal

Chelsea winger Marko Marin is confident that his side can defeat Arsenal at the Emirates on Saturday.

The Blues will be hoping to at least maintain their one-point lead at the top of the Premier League with a victory over Arsene Wenger's side.

"There are two German players (Lukas Podolski and Per Mertesacker) to play against and I hope I am with the team," said the 23-year-old.

"The important thing is to win and keep our position in the Premier League. We have a very good defence, so it will be very hard for Lukas to play against us.

"I'm not sure they have played against a team so good so it will be harder for him and I know Branislav Ivanovic very well, he is one of the best defenders in the world so I am not scared."

Marin joined Chelsea from Werder Bremen in the summer.
