BBC

Chelsea held off London rivals Arsenal at Stamford Bridge to claim their first home win of 2013 at the fourth attempt.

Juan Mata drove in a shot to put the Blues in front, although the visitors had justifiable claims of a foul against them in the build up.

Keeper Wojciech Szczesny brought down Ramires and Frank Lampard scored from the spot for a Chelsea second, reports the BBC.

Arsenal forward Theo Walcott's clinical sidefoot finish gave the visitors hope but Chelsea held on for the win.
