It’s been another very solid start to the season for Arsenal. They are unbeaten and have already produced some scintillating displays. However, questions still remain over whether Mikel Arteta’s men have the ability to truly threaten City’s domination.

A big plus for Arteta has been the return of Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian has looked sharp since returning from injury and the ex-City striker will be keen to make a statement against his former club. With the likes of Declan Rice and William Saliba also in fine form, this could be a great chance for Arsenal to lay down a big marker in the title race.

After a perfect start to the season, injuries and a slight dip in form have dampened the mood slightly at Man City. Last week’s defeat at Wolves was a hugely disappointing performance and it is clear that the absence of Rodri in midfield is proving huge for Pep Guardiola’s men.

In the continued absence of Rodri, Kalvin Phillips is likely to continue in midfield, however the ex-Leeds man is yet to convince in the role. Guardiola will be hoping that Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish will be back in contention to provide the ammunition for the prolific Erling Haaland in attack.

Head to Head

City have won 12 league games in a row against the Gunners, although Arsenal did enjoy a penalty shoot out victory in August’s Community Shield. The last Arsenal league win over City at the Emirates came in 2015, but overall the Gunners hold a 99-65 lead over City in the head to head.

Our Betting Tip for Today

Current betting odds for the game make Man City slight favourites at 6/4, with the home side priced at 2/1. You can back the draw at 5/2.

This is a very tough game to call, but ultimately we think City will prevail. Wherever you look, they have world class players who can transform games. And in Haaland, they have the most prolific striker in Premier League history.

The home crowd will be firmly behind the Gunners, but City have the big game experience to overcome that hostile environment and pull out a big statement win.
