Arsenal have been preparing themselves for a huge clash on Tuesday night as they host Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners have gone four games without a win in the Premier League and will be hopeful that their struggling local rivals can help provide that spark once again.
A win could see the north London outfit move back to the top of the division, though that may only be temporary as Manchester City hold games in hand. While the title race is out of their control, Mikel Arteta and his players will have to do everything possible to ensure that any slip-up from their rivals can be capitalised upon.
Heading into the clash with the Blues, plenty of training photos have been released, including some interesting hints at how the side have prepared for the tie. With that said, here's a look at a few things spotted ahead of the big London derby on Tuesday night.

Kiwior hint
Arteta may have hinted at a possible start for Jakub Kiwior in the clash as part of his training drills. The Poland international was seen paired up with Gabriel Magalhaes in a drill, seemingly defending against Ben White, who was pictured wearing a pink bib.
The decision to pair the two together could hint at building a defensive relationship between the pair that could then be unleashed in the London derby on Tuesday night.
Jorginho reaction
Arsenal midfielder Jorginho will see some familiar faces when the Gunners host his former side Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium. Many will be hoping that he won't be seen reacting as he did in training though, having been seen grimacing on the ground in reaction to something he saw.
Positive atmosphere
Despite going on a winless run of games, the atmosphere in training at London Colney seemed upbeat and positive. Among all the pictures taken, every member of the squad is seen smiling and having an enjoyable time, something that many will hope can translate to positive results again.
