Of course this will not be easy for Arsenal and even Manchester City are more favored to win the match later.
The factor of playing at home will of course have a little influence on Manchester City but we also have to look at the overall strength of both teams at the beginning of this season and indeed Manchester City and Arsenal are still equally strong, just like last season so this match will be quite fierce and difficult for both teams and regarding the slight favorability of Manchester City I think because of the factor they are playing at home.

It should be noted that this is a match between two teams that are favored in the fight for the PL title this season which means this is a match between the two strongest teams in the Premier League this season, so of course this will be quite fierce.

I even think that Arsenal will still find it difficult to beat Manchester City in this weekend's match at Manchester City's home, although it does not rule out the possibility of winning there for Arsenal, but I still see that Manchester City's strength is still much better than Arsenal. And from the statistics, it is also clear even though this does not have to be used as a reference completely because in this match there could be a difference. In addition, Manchester City also does not want to lose at home in the upcoming match because if they lose, their position can be immediately displaced by Arsenal.

^  After two years of trying to get ahead of Guardiola, twice Arterta has failed.  And I know that this year he's due to win the league, but just from optics alone, we could clearly see that Man City is just the better team compared to Arsenal.  I mean it could change and usually we see it happen around the winter.  But then again Man City has shown that they could persevere from behind and come out on top.  Guardiola is a good motivator.

Anyway, we have a treat for the early kick off.  West Ham vs Chelsea...  From what we've seen from Chelsea, I wouldn'f be totally be surprised of they get an L here.  It's West Ham, a slightly decent squad with a slightly decent manager against a struggling Chelsea.

Manchester city are at the upper hand and I believe they are still going to win this game because of the injury that is affecting arsenal and Incase you missed arsenal on their part have been struggling to score goals which is due to the injuries sustained in the team and for Manchester city draw against inter Milan , well some would argue that it wasn't a surprise because if you had watch the champions league final that city won narrowly against inter Milan then you would have known that inter Milan aren't a small side playing with Manchester city and city know this themselves.

You made a good point. Southampton is not a strong team and so far in the Premier League they lost all the games and that's why beating a team like Southampton with all the superstar players they have in Macnshter United is not something hard for Ten Hag and they should not be happy to get this result because Southampton was much weaker than Manchester united.
Also, Southampton played with one fewer player against Manchester United in the second half, which is another treason for them to lose.

That is also my prediction, if Arsenal does not win the match, I believe the match will end in a draw, Arsenal is in top form this season, and this is not the first time they have played against Manchester City, we saw how Arsenal's defender prevented Haaland from scoring goals last season; Haaland did not score a single goal in their last two Premier League meetings, while Arsenal still has the same defense to play at Etihad this season, and if Manchester City win the match, I think they are lucky. I will not take the risk of betting on Manchester City as the favorite team this weekend, despite the fact that they will be hosting the match.


I'm not sure if this is true, but I read on Fabrizio's official page that De Bruyne will miss the match against Arsenal because of an injury he sustained against Inter Milan. Guardiola substituted him to prevent a long injury because De Bruyne has been an important player on the team. De Bruyne's condition seems serious against Inter Milan, so I assume the player is tired from playing in international competitions. Guardiola needs to give him time to recover in small games because he will be needed for the next Champions League matches, such as against PSG and Juventus.

The match will be played at Crystal Palace's home ground, I think Man United does not have a big percentage to win the match and the victory in the previous match also does not guarantee that Ten Hag's team can do the same.

For the Manchester City vs Arsenal match it will still be fierce regardless of some players from both teams who are injured but because Manchester City will play at their home ground it makes them have a bigger percentage to win the match.

Two familiar faces meet again. Both sides didn't get a result in their UCl fixtures, which makes their Sunday game tempting to watch. But the thing is, this game might end up been the boring type, as we might observe too many players with fatigues as a result of their recent UCl games. Besides, we all know how well arsenal can defend a game for an entire 90min, while City playing on an attack for 90mins as well. I might want to bet a draw in the game judging from their last encounter. But wishing both sides the best ahead of Sunday.

Currently KDB is doubtful due to a problem against Inter some time ago and in some news now he might not be able to play against Arsenal later but Manchester City are still quite lucky because there is only one player who is doubtful to play in contrast to Arsenal who are currently still in difficult conditions where some of their key players still have to pull over due to injury.

Even so, the absence of KDB will also be a blessing in itself because although Manchester City are still strong where they can still dominate the game but when there is no playmaker like KDB Manchester City's attacks are sometimes directionless so this could be a blessing for Arsenal.

I think this match becomes a little difficult to predict when KDB is not in the squad but when talking about probability then it is certain that Manchester City is still the favourite in this match.

There is no doubt that Inter Milan's defense is that strong, it is no wonder that last season Inter was the only club that conceded few goals in his own league, even though they failed to advance far in the Champions League last season, but they failed because of a penalty shootout with Atletico Madrid. This indicates that their performance is not only strong on the front line but also on their solid back line, even against attacks from the strongest club in the Premier League, Manchester City. Inter is lucky to have a reliable goalkeeper like Yann Sommer.

Facing Arsenal will be a very fierce competition for both clubs, 2 clubs that are always competing for the EPL title, but I predict that Man City will beat Arsenal considering that Man City is more advantaged playing at home.

I'm surprised Manchester United is just a slight favorite against Crystal Palace even though by statistics Crystal Palace isn't that good, while Manchester United won with big scores in the previous two match. I'm convinced Manchester United will win this match.

While Arsenal vs Manchester City, both of them suffered players injury, if De Bruyne wasn't available, I guess the match will end in draw.

Kevin de Bruyne has been an icon and at the same time the motor of Manchester City game so far, so it will be difficult for them to release him to the Arab League in the near time, de Bruyne has confirmed that previously he still wanted to play for Manchester City and he would be willing to extend the contract if indeed the club still needed him, but currently there is no sign if Manchester City will offer him a new contract remember his contract which will expire in 2025 Later, I think De Bruyne  situation is indeed very difficult at Manchester City considering his who are no longer young so I think he will most likely prefer to leave for free later after spending the rest of his contract.

De Bruyne had to be substituted in the first half against Intermilan yesterday and it seems that there is indeed a problem that befalls de Bruyne at the moment, but even so it is uncertain how much injury he will get ahead of the match against Arsenal later, De Bruyne is a very important player for Manchester City during and losing him will certainly make Manchester City a little weak even if they have Phil Foden in the game later, But I think before there is an official confirmation from Manchester City regarding De Bruyne injury, precisly the opportunity he to play against Arsenal is still open at the moment.

Statistically Manchester City is superior to Arsenal and the upcoming match will also be a decisive match even though the league has only started a few matches. This season, the Gunners have added some new ammunition that might really help Arteta in preparing the team to be able to defeat his tough opponent. Several possibilities could indeed happen but in my opinion Manchester City is still very strong so far. The results of the Champions League matches cannot be used as a reference because it has a different atmosphere.

I think that 1.89 on City in a home match is a great odds. Arsenal did not look very convincing in the match with Tottenham but they were lucky in this match, they played a very weak match with Atalanta and they were lucky that Retegui could not score a penalty, otherwise they would have lost. What awaits them in the match with City, I think that most likely City will win and increase the gap to an indecent 5 points, thus almost depriving Arsenal of a chance to become champions. City, unlike Arsenal, is in excellent shape, and a draw with Inter is an accident.

The match between Manchester City and Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium will be the most interesting and most entertaining match in the English premier league this coming Sunday.
It is not going to be easy between both team as both team has been doing well and are in good form this season we all saw how both team played goal less draw in the UEFA Champions league this week Tuesday and Wednesday respectively I believe both team has been preparing very well for this week game on Sunday though Manchester City is a little bit favorite to win this particular game. But if am to bet Manchester City vs Arsenal game I won't be given any side direct winning because the team to win in this game is uncertain I think the best option to bet this game should be both team to score and over 1.5 goals.

This is an important match for both teams, it must be admitted that in terms of h2h and statistics Man City is superior in this match. However, I always believe in football anything can happen, maybe Arsenal can win or draw in this match. I don't dare to bet on Man City's victory in this match, but I will bet on the number of goals because I believe both teams will score.

So far Man City still looks perfect until the fourth week because they always win and have even scored 11 goals, and 9 of them were scored by Erling Haaland. On the other hand, Arsenal is also unbeaten so far in the EPL league, they have won three times, drawn once and they have also only conceded once.

Interestingly, Man City and Arsenal in the Champions League both got a draw and both got a draw with Italian representatives. Man City drew with Inter Milan at the Etihad Stadium, while Arsenal drew at Atalanta's home. So both teams in this big match certainly want to win to build team confidence, especially Arsenal wants to maintain the distance in points with Man City so as not to be too far behind.

Chelsea have not been able to play James this season due to injury, although he recovered from the injury in the summer, then another injury prevented him from playing. Losing James is a big blow for Chelsea because apart from serving as captain, his contribution to the team is very big, especially in guarding the defensive area. The captain's long injury history is the reason why Chelsea wants to recruit a new right-back, several big names have been prepared including young players who have performed well with the club they currently play for. Kiliann Sildillia, Michael Kayode and Geovany Quenda are being targeted by Enzo Maresca, Kounde and Jeremie Frimpong are considered ideal replacements for James.

Every team has its own best performance, it is true that Man City could not score a goal against Inter Milan because their solid defense made it difficult for Man City to score a goal. I agree with what you said with Arteta who must have learned from the previous ones, this allows them to compete well with Man City, the final result will probably be a draw. Unless maybe luck is on one of them.
What needs to be known is that Inter Milan's good defense is their goalkeeper who is able to catch the ball launched by Man City players, while for Arsenal's goalkeeper it is impossible to be the same, so they have to be able to build their own strategy to be able to attack and score goals. Besides that, I think this match is quite a tough match because both of them have very good performances so it cannot be compared which one will definitely win, we'll just have to see later.

Are you expecting his injury will drive City to sell him to the saudi pro league? I think that is unlikely to happen with him, and it sounds impossible. Unless, they will part ways with Pep, and it would push De bruyne to think to continue his career in Saudi.

However, like what i said above no confirmation regarding his injury. It means, it's possible he is fine and ready for the clash against Arsenal.  

@Docnaster If bringing in "supposed quality players" were the solution, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Chelsea would have won more titles than Man City. Now I don't really agree to the part where you said if Chelsea bring in Osimhen, a lot of problems could then be solved. With the squad that is at Enzo's disposal, I don't think he wants more players in the squad, no matter how good they are. Unless they're world-class quality, no one is needed in Chelsea right now.

About their form, again, I don't think it's about the quality that they carry, rather it's about how they are managed, how their training goes, and how the team sets up before a match. The players that they have are of proper quality and proper caliber. If given time and coaching, this team can win big games and fight for the title. But if the owners are so impatient that they keep sacking coaches left and right after every season, they are on their way to destruction, not the top.
