A showdown at the Etihad could be a title decider...

Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta

Manchester City host Arsenal in the Premier League this weekend in a game that’s being billed as a title decider.

The Gunners currently sit top of the table on goal difference ahead of Liverpool in second and City, who are a point adrift, in third.

With just ten games left of the season, this clash could play a huge part in deciding who lifts the trophy in May.

Arsenal head to Manchester with a dismal record having not won a game at the Etihad Stadium since 2015. However, Mikel Arteta’s side are on an eight-game winning streak and got the better of City in the reverse fixture back in October.

City also head into the game in good form, unbeaten in 2024 as they look to repeat the treble heroics of last season.

Guardiola’s men came from behind last season to lift the title and they are now going for four in a row. You can never count them out and many neutrals are still backing them to do it.

Although several injury concerns for both sides could have a massive effect on the outcome.

Man City v Arsenal prediction

Lawro: You’d always fancy Manchester City to win any game, especially at home, but I think it’s going to be tough against Arsenal. I’m going to go for a draw here. Obviously that would be good for Liverpool if they can win but Arsenal are much better away from home now and they’ve been through an excellent run as we all know. City, it’s a long time since they’ve been beaten and I don’t expect them to lose but they’ve just had one or two little wobbles which is why I just fancy the Draw. Manchester City 1-1 Arsenal.
