Sainsbury's has clashed with the competitions watchdog over its merger with Asda after a rival said it had no plans to enter the online grocery market.
Bosses at the supermarket are challenging a ruling by the CMA that effectively blocked its £14 billion tie-up with Asda.
They claim the regulator failed to properly interrogate respondents during its investigation into the deal.
