Leicester, who played defensively, made it difficult for Manchester City players to score goals, De Bruyne being the only player to score in this match. One goal obtained by Manchester City is enough to go to the top of the standings, Manchester City's position is not safe because Arsenal have not played a game against Nottingham Forest.
Of course it's not safe because Arsenal also don't seem to want to lose their match against Nottingham.
Leicester performed well defensively and on the counter-attack, it really made it difficult for Manchester City players to score. Luckily KDB managed to score a goal through set pieces, it was the only goal in the match.
Manchester City win over Leicester meant Arsenal had to beat Nottingham Forest to reclaim their place, Arteta men must not make the same mistake as they were held to a draw with Southampton last week. Losing points will make Arsenal lose its position at the top of the standings because Arsenal goal productivity is lower than that obtained by Manchester City.
There is no other reason than to win if Arsenal want to claim their place back at the top. Arsenal have the opportunity to take it easily because Nottingham will not be able to defend well against Arsenal's attacks. Arsenal's victory is sure to be easy, that's because Nottingham are the bottom team at the moment in the Premier League with only 2 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses in 12 matches.
