City travel to north London on Wednesday to lock horns with Arsenal in what promises to be the match of the season so far.
It’s a clash that everyone has been looking forward to, bringing together the Premier League leaders and second placed reigning champions City who lie just three points behind Arsenal in the table.
What’s more, it is also the latest battle of wits between City boss Pep Guardiola and Gunners counterpart Mikel Arteta who, of course, was assistant coach under Pep for three years here between 2016 and 2019.
