Manchester City - WWWWDW
Manchester City will be looking for a repeat result of a 2-0 FA Cup success against Newcastle United. In that match, Manchester City had 72% possession and 16 attempts at goal with 5 on target. The scorer for Manchester City was Bernardo Silva (13', 31'). At the other end, Newcastle United had 2 attempts on goal with 1 of them on target.
Manchester City haven’t been able to stop scoring goals, netting in one hundred percent of their last 6 matches. They’ve managed to rack up 16 during that period and have conceded a total of 5.
Arsenal - WLWWWW
Arsenal will come into the meeting following on from a 1-0 Champions League win with the defeat of Porto in their previous game. In that game, Arsenal had 58% possession and 13 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. The only player to score for Arsenal was Leandro Trossard (41'). On the other side, Porto got 10 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Arsenal won the match 4-2 in a dramatic penalty shootout.
The attack-minded Arsenal have helped themselves to an avalanche of goals over their last six games (18 to be exact). That works out as the ominous average of 3 goals scored per match for this period of time. That trend won’t necessarily follow through into this match, of course.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Lewis, Dias, Akanji, Ake; Silva, Rodri, De Bruyne; Foden, Haaland, Doku
Arsenal possible starting lineup:
Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Odegaard, Jorginho, Rice; Saka, Havertz, Martinelli

Prediction: Manchester City 1-1 Arsenal
Sunday's appetizing affair pits the unstoppable force of Arsenal - boasting a 100% Premier League record in 2024 - against the immovable object of Man City, without defeat on their own patch in an astounding 16 months. The apparent absences of Walker and Stones - if Guardiola's words are to be believed - should see Martinelli step foot onto the Etihad turf with a glint in his eyes if he is indeed passed fit, and the customary Etihad defeat should not be on the menu for Arsenal this weekend. However, with City as irrepressible as ever in front of the home crowd, a share of the spoils seems the likeliest outcome from Sunday's main event - one point which should be more warmly-received by the away end than the Citizens faithful.
