Arsenal – Man City Preview
It’s time for a majestic Premier League derby because on Sunday Arsenal will host Manchester City at the Emirates. Let’s see what we can tell you about it in our free soccer predictions daily. Here we go!
Arsenal are second in the league with 47 points won so far in the competition. The Gunners are 6 points behind the leader Liverpool so obviously they don’t have a room for mistake here. Mikel Arteta’s team needs to be almost perfect in order to beat Liverpool for the title.
Last weekend Arsenal claimed their 13th win for the season. The Gunners faced Wolves at the Molineux and one win was enough for the win. Riccardo Calafiori scored the winning goal after coming in from the bench. For the Italian defender it was his second Premier League goal for the season.
Myles Lewis-Skelly won’t play against City because of suspension. He was sent off during the win against Wolverhampton. Most likely Calafiori will replace him in the line-up.
Manchester City finally escaped the crisis they were finding themselves in. The Cityzens have four wins and one draw in their last five matches in the league. During the week Pep Guardiola’s team achieved a win in the Champions League as well – 3-1 against Club Brugge.
It’s curious to see what Guardiola will decide about his starting eleven against Arsenal. Omar Marmoush, Savinho and Rico Lewis are options for the line-up while most likely Jack Grealish will remain on the bench once again. Matheus Nunes is expected to start as a right-back once again.
That’s the free soccer predictions daily for the Premier League derby between Arsenal and Manchester City at the Emirates. The Gunners are ahead in the standings, but Man City are playing better in the last month. Surely Guardiola’s team won’t give up without a fight here.
