City can register statement win
Manchester City’s victories over Arsenal last season (4-1 at the Etihad and 3-1 at the Emirates) were crucial to their title success and there could be more joy for Pep Guardiola’s side when they head to north London this weekend.
Heavyweight clashes are often decided by the best players but there will be a few big hitters missing from Sunday’s line-ups.
City must get by without long-term injury victim Kevin De Bruyne and influential midfielder Rodri, who completes a three-game suspension.
And Arsenal might have to make do without injured attackers Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka, with the former missing the last five games and the latter lasting just 33 minutes of Tuesday’s 2-1 Champions League loss away to Lens. His exit changed the course of that game.
Arsenal found themselves short of pace and energy in the attacking third and Lens were able to play much higher up the pitch and steadily take control of the game.
Coping with the loss of big players is a crucial aspect for any successful team and City will be delighted with their performance in the 3-1 success away to RB Leipzig on Wednesday.
They needed two late goals to seal the win but were hugely impressive on the night – winning the shot count 18-3 – and thoroughly deserved the three points.
If they reach similar levels in north London they will be tough to stop.

Haaland can add to his tally
Erling Haaland had a rare off night against RB Leipzig, wasting several chances, but he will keep getting himself into goalscoring positions and has every chance of finding the net against Arsenal.
The Norwegian is 11/10 to score, which looks a tempting bet as he attempts to avoid a three-game goal drought for the first time this season.
Haaland wrapped up the scoring in each of last season’s league wins over the Gunners and he will be determined to deliver in another high-profile match.

Combative Jesus could be cautioned
Gabriel Jesus showed his frustration when he was booked in the closing stages of Arsenal’s 2-1 loss away to Lens and he is a candidate for a card at the weekend.
The Brazilian always plays with fire in his belly and he could be even more motivated to impress against his former club.
Apart from striving to score goals, Jesus will have a key role to play at the forefront of Arsenal’s press.
Jesus gets through a mountain of work but he can overstep the mark and was booked six times in 26 Premier League games last term.
While Jesus could enter the book, City centre-forward Haaland may have a more positive impact.
Last season the Norwegian racked up 44 Premier League goal involvements (36 goals and eight assists) and he seems likely to influence the outcome on Sunday.

Arsenal vs Manchester City team news
Arsenal
Mikel Arteta will be sweating over the fitness of Saka who limped off against Lens but was included in the England squad for the coming international break.
Arsenal predicted line-up (4-3-3): Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Rice Odegaard, Havertz; Trossard, Nketiah, Jesus.
Man City
Rodri’s suspension has caused a big dilemma in midfield where Rico Lewis could be handed a start after an impressive performance against Leipzig. Bernardo Silva and John Stones returned to the side in Germany and could retain their places.
Man City predicted line-up (4-2-3-1): Ederson; Walker, Stones, Dias, Gvardiol; Lewis, Kovacic; Foden, Alvarez, Doku; Haaland.
