Arsenal welcome Manchester City to the Emirates this weekend in the latest edition of the rivalry between Mikel Arteta and Pep Guardiola. 

The Gunners currently sit second in the Premier League table, six points off league leaders Liverpool, who also have a game in hand. They won 2-1 in their last game against Girona in the Champions League, taking them through to the round of 16.

They won 1-0 against Wolves in their last league game, in which Myles Lewis-Skelly was sent off, but Arsenal successfully appealed the decision, and he won’t face a ban, making him available for the City game.

Arsenal couldn’t get the three points in their last meeting with City, drawing 2-2 at the Etihad Stadium. Following the game, City striker Erling Haaland was seen to tell Arsenal players to “stay humble” after the match.

City are currently fourth in the league table, six points behind Arteta’s side, who will hope to get the upper hand on their title rivals from the last two seasons. Click here to see our predicted XI for Arsenal.
