Man City v Arsenal prediction and team news: Who will win Premier League game?
Our predictions for Man City v Arsenal in the Premier League, including who we think will win and predicted line-ups.
Manchester City take on Arsenal in a Premier League game that means so much more than just three points for both teams at the Etihad.
The reigning top flight champions are riding a wave of menacing form that looks set to carry them to another title, unless Arsenal halt the surge here.
Kevin De Bruyne has found form, Jack Grealish is a growing influence for City, while Erling Haaland continues to wreak havoc across the land.
On the other side, Arsenal have drawn their last three matches to allow City an opportunity to prosper. The Gunners' lead stands at five points, though City boast two games in hand.
A draw may be enough to stave off City for the time being, but only a victory would restore Arsenal's destiny to their own hands. It's Pep Guardiola versus Mikel Arteta, the champions versus the upstarts, second versus first. It's a Premier League classic in the making and you wouldn't want to miss this.

Man City v Arsenal prediction
How anyone could bet staunchly against Manchester City in any match in world football right now is beyond me.
It would require a perfect 10 performance from Arsenal to leave the north west with a maximum haul, and while they are one of the only teams around capable of doing so, it feels unlikely they'd do so in such a high-intensity showdown.
However, completely rule out Arsenal at your peril. They boast a game young team, spearheaded by former City ace Gabriel Jesus, the man who, more than anyone on the pitch, will want to burst the net.
Pressure does funny things to football teams and while City boast resilience and know-how to see out the title war, they could find themselves held up by this battle.
Our prediction: Man City 2-2 Arsenal (16/1 at bet365)
