Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola is excited facing Mikel Arteta's Arsenal today.

The pair are good friends.

Iraola said: "It's a pleasure to play against him and have the chance to beat each other in the Premier League. I think he's doing amazingly well. Not only this season, the team has been improving every season with him. I think, he deserves to finish strong.

"I don't know if they will win the title or not, but he's doing very well and I consider him one of the best coaches right now.

"And for me it is a challenge to face a team like Arsenal with the atmosphere involved tomorrow in the stadium. And we have to be really strong.

"Otherwise it's going to be a tough day tomorrow. We have to be at our best because the level of the game and what is in play is, it's very important."
