Arsenal vs Man City: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds today

Arsenal host Manchester City in what already looks like a Premier League title clash at the Emirates Stadium today.

The Gunners fell away in the final weeks of last season having looked so strong for the majority of the campaign, with Pep Guardiola’s side relentless in the run-in on their way to making it a treble-winning campaign.

It has been an unbeaten start to the Premier League for Arsenal this season, but performances have not been consistent and the display in the midweek defeat to Lens in the Champions League will have concerned Mikel Arteta.

City had to work before eventually picking up a win over RB Leipzig to ensure they did not fall to three consecutive defeats. They too have not been at their free-flowing best recently, with Wolves beating them last weekend to end City’s perfect start in the Premier League.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Arsenal vs Man City is scheduled for a 4.30pm BST kick-off time on Sunday 8 October, 2023.

The Emirates Stadium in London will host.

Arsenal vs Man City prediction

Arsenal’s last victory over Man City in the Premier League came eight years ago, with Guardiola’s side on a 12-match winning run against the Gunners in the League.

Neither side has been at their best in recent weeks, while Arsenal go into this with injury problems to contend with at the worst possible time.

The Gunners have looked vulnerable in defence at times this season, particularly at home, and City can take full advantage to continue their dominance of this fixture.

Man City win, 2-1.
