Arsenal Vs Manchester City (2 - 2) On 2nd April 2017 by Omooba77: 4:26pm On Mar 18, 2017 |
Arsenal confront Mancity in another pending defeat. TEAM NEWS Mesut Ozil could start for Arsenal following six weeks out but Petr Cech is unavailable due to a calf injury. Alexis Sanchez is fit, but a thigh injury has sidelined Lucas Perez, while Santi Cazorla's Achilles injury has ruled him out until next season. Kevin de Bruyne and Raheem Sterling are both in contention for Manchester City despite picking up injuries while on international duty. Gabriel Jesus and Ilkay Gundogan remain long-term absentees. MOTD COMMENTATOR'S NOTES Steve Wilson: "Two meetings in three weeks between Arsenal and Manchester City look pivotal to both clubs' seasons. "If Arsene Wenger finds himself at a crossroads, so do some members of City's staff. It's hard to see anything other than a major Etihad clearout in the summer, with Pep Guardiola having judged a squad with an ageing core and found it wanting. "Guardiola will firmly believe that a golden time lies ahead - conjuring images of Leroy Sane, Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus thrilling fans and haunting opponents. "Think of Wenger's wonder years at Arsenal and the images are of Tony Adams, Marc Overmars, Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Patrick Vieira framed by that familiar Highbury backdrop. "These are certainly great memories of some of the finest football played on English fields - but they are memories of a different time and a different place." Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger: "Our season will be decided by the next two months and the ability we show to fight. "Our future will be decided by our mental qualities. We have had enough press conferences about (my future) and at this moment it is not the most important thing at the club. "It's a strange season because we played 20 games unbeaten but I cannot sit here and say we have no flaws in our team because we have." Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola: "Arsene and the Arsenal players are so professional. They want to win every game. "When you lose a lot it is the most dangerous moment to face them. I would prefer to face Arsenal after a lot of wins." MATCH FACTS Head-to-head Arsenal have lost just one of their 19 previous Premier League home matches against Manchester City (W12, D6). City are looking to do a league double over Arsenal for the first time since 1975-76. The last seven league meetings have produced 27 goals - an average of 3.86 per game. Arsenal The Gunners have lost four of their last five Premier League games for the first time since April 1995. However, they have won six of their last seven home matches. This is only the second time in Premier League history that Arsenal have been outside the top five in April. The other was in 2006. Arsenal have taken only five points out of a possible 24 in matches against teams currently in the top seven. Alexis Sanchez has been involved in an unrivalled 27 Premier League goals this season, scoring 18 and providing nine assists. Manchester City City have gone seven league games without defeat, their longest streak under Pep Guardiola (W4, D3). They have won their last three away games without conceding - they have only managed four in a row on one occasion, in the old Division Two in 1903. Guardiola has suffered five league defeats as Manchester City boss this season - he's never lost six in a single league campaign as a manager. The Blues have won just four of their last 15 Premier League matches played on a Sunday (W4, D6, L5). City have conceded a league-low six goals from set pieces this season. http://m.bbc.com/sport/football/39396482

Both teams are not doing well. Arsenal does have a way of getting the better of City so I'll go for a tight Arsenal win. Better still, they should share the points as that will favour my Chelsea more. |
