Arsene Wenger’s men are set to face Manchester City for the first time since the 2-2 draw in an entertaining pre-season affair back in July.

Pep Guardiola’s side managed to make up some ground in the title race this week as their 2-0 victory over Watford ensured that Arsenal’s 2-1 defeat to Everton counted even more.

However, Manchester City, who were beaten 4-2 by Leicester City last weekend, may be concerned about the Gunners atoning for Tuesday night’s disappointment, especially with the likes of Sergio Aguero, Fernandinho and Ilkay Gundogan all missing.

According to several Premier League fans on social media, the upcoming fixture at the Etihad stadium is one which sees Arsenal as clear favourites.
