Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca believes the gap between his team and Arsenal is quite large ahead of the two sides’ Premier League clash on Sunday.
The Gunners are aiming to keep their title hopes alive, while Chelsea are also fighting for a Champions League spot.
Asked how big the gap is between the two teams, Maresca said: “It’s quite big. The reason is that they have worked with the same manager แทงบอล UFABET ราคาดีที่สุด ไม่มีขั้นต่ำ for five years, so the difference is quite significant.”
“With the same players, they played in many important games, but our goal, our job is to close the gap between us and them.”
“The table now shows we are only six points clear of them. We are quite close but we still have nine games to play.”
“We have two targets: to finish in the top four or top five for the Champions League and the other is in the Conference League.”
“This club is used to playing in finals and fighting for titles. So if we can give the fans and the club another chance, that’s important to us.”
“We are just focused on how we can do our game, how we can try to beat them. Then, hopefully, we can do that and we can be closer [to them].
“It (second place) could be a target, for sure. It’s our duty to do our best. But, at the same time. I think the target for us is Sunday’s game and then game after game how we can go close.”
