Today as anticipated, Arsenal will host Manchester City in today's game. Its time. Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal are buoyed by a big win against Leeds last weekend as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a hat trick, but this is a totally different test. Arteta, the former Man City assistant under Pep Guardiola, will know how to get at his old team as he did in the FA Cup last season.
- Arsenal vs City
As for Guardiola and City, where do we start? They have won 12 games in a row and have a 10 point lead at the top of the table, plus Kevin de Bruyne and Sergio Aguero are back fit and ready to roll. City’s playmakers and defense is looking imperious and it’s hard to see when they will drop any more points this season.
Team news
Arsenal have one injury concern and that is star central midfielder Thomas Partey. He continues to suffer hamstring and thigh injuries since his summer arrival from Atletico Madrid. Manchester City brought Kevin de Bruyne off the bench at Everton and that is a huge boost.
Aguero is also ready to roll, plus Ruben Dias and Fernandinho are fit too. The only player out injured for Man City is Nathan Ake, while Ilkay Gundogan could reeturn after a minor groin problem.
Will Arsenal survive?
