Arsenal VS Man City - Prediction

The Super Sunday in the English Premier League is ready to feature a highly anticipated match tomorrow as two giants, Arsenal and Manchester City, will face off against each other at Emirates Stadium. While Manchester City had a poor start to the new campaign, now they seem confident again and ready to challenge anyone. They have entered the top four after being unbeaten in their last six games in the English Premier League. The Citizens defeated Chelsea in their most recent league game and entered the top four. Arsenal, however, have been one of the title contenders this season. But they are already 9 points behind the table topper, Liverpool. The Gunners had two draws in their last five league matches. Therefore, they need to get a full three points from Manchester City to stay alive in the title race. Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta sees this match as an opportunity to get confidence. He said, “[Winning] would be a big boost for us. Winning big matches is always something special. Every time we play a big match against one of our big rivals it brings something extra - the confidence, the emotion, the fact that they are there and continue to win - for that we want to achieve.”
