Manchester City take on Arsenal at the Etihad in what could be a decisive fixture in the Premier League title race.
The Gunners travel to City five points clear at the Premier League summit, though having played two games more and drawn their last three encounters.
Indeed, Mikel Arteta’s men claimed two-goal leads against Liverpool and West Ham before falling to a draw in both games, while a late double was required for the table toppers to snatch a point from bottom club Southampton on Friday.

Meanwhile, City have confidently secured progress in both the FA Cup and Champions League and are on a six-game winning streak in the league.

Furthermore, the north Londoners’ record against City has been woeful in recent times. Arsenal have lost seven straight games to Pep Guardiola’s men, and 14 of their last 15.
Indeed, in the last six years, their only positive result against City was a 2-0 FA Cup final win in July 2020.
In the league Arsenal last claimed a victory against City in December 2015, and have since registered two draws and 12 defeats, including 11 straight losses.
