Chelsea defender Gary Cahill has described the upcoming fixtures against Manchester United and Arsenal as "mouth-watering".
The Blues currently have a seven-point lead at the top of the Premier League table, but they will have to play clubs in the second and third spots during their seven-game run-in.
This Saturday, Chelsea will welcome United to Stamford Bridge before travelling to the Emirates the following week to face the Gunners.
Jose Mourinho's side head into this weekend's encounter on the back of a late 1-0 win over Queens Park Rangers.
"They're mouth-watering games so everybody's looking forward to them," Cahill told the club's official website. "We've chalked another one off at QPR and we're getting closer and closer.
"Next week we're playing against an in-form Man United team but we're playing at Stamford Bridge and it should be a good game."
Chelsea have lost just twice in the league this season.
