Manchester City, Recent FormLast time out, Manchester City went away feeling content with a 3-1 home win against Leicester City Their share of possession in that meeting was 71%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Leicester City, who had 10 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Their boss Pep Guardiola has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 18 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 4 goals conceded across those matches. It's now been 29 games since they failed to score at home. It's clear that with only 2 clean sheets from the last 6 matches at home, Guardiola will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 6 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 7 games.
When home matches come round at The Etihad Stadium, Erling Haaland will feel confident of adding more goals to his tally of 7 goals in Manchester City's last 6 home league matches.
Arsenal, Recent FormArsenal manager Mikel Arteta will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 3-3 draw in his team's last league outing against Southampton. In that game they recorded 74 % of the possession, with 25 attempts on goal, 6 on target. Their opponents found the target on 6 of their 8 shots on goal.
Arteta will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 18 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have lost 9 goals during those same matches. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 12 games. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
There will be mixed feelings from The Gunners, while they've been undefeated in their last 10 league games, they've only manage a drawn in 3 of them.
With 4 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Arsenal, Gabriel Martinelli will be looking to add more goals against Manchester City in this match.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Arsenal who ended up empty-handed, losing 1-3 to Manchester City.
During the last 3 times these two teams have met in the league at The Etihad Stadium, The Gunners have been unable to break through the Man City defence and find the back of the net. Goals should be on the cards for Man City in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against The Gunners in their last 15 meetings together. Arsenal have struggled to break down The Citizens defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings. In their last 3 away league games against The Citizens, Arsenal have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
Undefeated in their last 14 league encounters against Arsenal, Man City have dominated this fixture in recent times, winning the last 11 times in a row.
Kevin De Bruyne will be feeling confident of netting goals for Man City in this one against Arsenal with his scoring record of 4 goals in their last 5 meetings in the league.
There is only really one injury concern for the Man City manager Pep Guardiola ahead of this clash, with Nathan Aké (Hamstring) missing out, which gives Guardiola a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Mikel Arteta has a number of injury concerns in his Arsenal squad to contend with: Mohamed Elneny (Knee), William Saliba (Back), Takehiro Tomiyasu (Medial Collateral Ligament) and Granit Xhaka (Illness)
