Cesc Fabregas wants Arsenal to beat Chelsea as his former clubs prepare to do battle in the FA Cup final because Mikel Arteta's side 'need it more'

Cesc Fabregas has admitted he will be willing on Arsenal in the battle of his former clubs in the FA Cup final on Saturday.

The 33-year-old legendary midfielder, who played for the Emirates outfit between 2003 and 2011 and won the same trophy with them, conceded that they are in greater need of the silverware.

Fabregas explained that Chelsea's impressive haul of titles in recent years means that he hopes their London rivals take home the glory at the national stadium.
