Arsenal and Manchester City renew their rivalry with precious Premier League points up for grabs at the Emirates.
Mikel Arteta and Pep Guardiola’s sides faced each other for the title in the last two seasons but it is Liverpool who are leading the way now.
The Gunners know they need to win to keep pace with Arne Slot’s side, while City are aiming to keep their place in the top four.
But tensions will still be high after a fractious 2-2 draw between the teams earlier this season.
Erling Haaland was involved in the drama as he told Arteta to “stay humble” - a moment that is unlikely to have been forgotten.
When is Arsenal vs Man City?
The Premier League fixture will kick off at 4:30pm GMT on Sunday 2 February.
What TV channel is it on?
It will be shown live on Sky Sports Main Event and Football, with coverage getting underway following the earlier match between Brentford and Tottenham.

Prediction
This is a rare occassion where Manchester City are not expected to triumph when they meet Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, at least according to the bookmakers. However, City have won their last two matches and seem closer to their old selves meaning this match is too hard to call. Unbeaten in five matches the Gunners have weathered a slight stumble and know this is a must win game if they hope to challenge for the title.
Arsenal 2-2 Man City.
