​Arteta says Arsenal desperate for home clash against Norwich

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has said that his side ware desperate to get a positive result from their home clash against Norwich City on Tuesday night.

The Gunners will be looking to record a second consecutive league victory after defeating Sheffield United 2-1 on Sunday after playing four away games since the Premier League's restart last month.

"We really want to play at home," he said. "That's where we enjoy more, but obviously not having the fans within is a tremendous disadvantage.

"We want to give them happy moments and enjoyment and at the moment we cannot do that just by seeing them as they have been watching on TV. But it's what we have at the moment.

"We had two friendlies [there] before we started the Premier League at home and it was a really strange feeling, but hopefully they're used to it now.

"We know what we expect with all the protocols that we could to make sure that the players know exactly what they have to do, and hopefully they can enjoy it again playing in our stadium."
