Former Arsenal manager George Graham thinks Arsenal can get a result at Stamford Bridge this Sunday.

The Gunners travel to the league leaders just a week after being comfortably beaten at home by Man Utd, and need a good result to lift their spirits.

Former boss Graham admits that although Chelsea are favourites, his old side would be happy to come away with a draw.

He said: "Because of the defeat by United they will be up for it even more. It is going to be a great game and it wouldn't surprise me if Arsenal got a result.

"There's something about the game that everyone is taking for granted – Chelsea are too powerful and all that – but I think Arsenal will get a result.

"Even a draw would be a great result for Arsenal."

Even if Arsène Wenger's side are beaten at Stamford Bridge, Graham believes they are still capable of mounting a title challenge.

"I can see Arsenal having a run again, like they did before, against the weaker teams. It wouldn't surprise me if Chelsea and United drop more points."
