Manchester City hosts Arsenal in a Premier League showdown with major implications for this season’s title race. The two teams, along with Liverpool, are locked in a fierce battle for the championship, making this match crucial as the last encounter among the top contenders.
Mikel Arteta, now Arsenal’s manager, faces his former mentor from his time coaching at City. Under Arteta’s guidance, Arsenal has emerged as a strong contender, boasting a run of eight consecutive wins that propelled them to the top of the table.
However, City has maintained a dominant record against Arsenal at home, having secured victory in their last eight meetings at the Etihad Stadium. A ninth successive home win for City would deal a significant blow to Arteta’s aspirations of securing Arsenal’s first league title in two decades.
