How both teams go into Arsenal vs Man City

Arsenal currently sits in second place, three points ahead of Nottingham Forest, but they are six points behind the league leaders, Liverpool, who also have a game in hand. Consistency has been a major issue for the Gunners; although they remain unbeaten since suffering a 1-0 loss to Newcastle—part of two defeats in three matches—they have failed to secure more than four consecutive wins and have dropped points in two of their last four league outings.

Is the crisis averted? Not quite. While Manchester City is unbeaten in their last six league games, having won four of those, they recently showed glimpses of their former selves with a commanding 6-0 victory over relegation-threatened Ipswich. This win has helped them climb back into the Champions League spots, positioning them six points behind Arsenal in second place.

Gabriel Jesus will not be available to Arsenal until next season after sustaining an injury to the ACL in his left knee.

Man City team news

Rodri remains a significant absence for Manchester City, as the influential Spanish midfielder will be sidelined until the new season after suffering a knee injury in the reverse fixture against Arsenal. Meanwhile, Oscar Bobb could be available after being ruled out before the season began due to a leg injury. However, there will be no place for Nathan Ake, Ruben Dias and Jeremy Doku who all remain injured.
