Another fear that the Gunners might not be able to win against Man City is that Saka is out injured and one might argue that they can do fine without the English winger but we all saw how demoralized they were in yesterday's game after Saka got plagued by an Achilles heel injury that has been bothering him since the end of the 2022/23 season and this will see him missing the top of the table encounter with Man City.
Both of Arsenal and Manchester City are in bad condition, Arsenal will play without Martinelli and Saka while Manchester City will play without Rodri, De Bruyne, Stones and Silva. It's 50:50, so I'm not really convinced if this match is a sure win for Manchester City.
Maybe the result will be draw?

Both teams are equally disadvantaged by the absence of several important players and it looks like this match will be a draw but both teams will still score goals against each other. However, it doesn't rule out the possibility that Arsenal can win because they are playing at home and even though I also know Arsenal have never won against Manchester City, this time they have to try so they can get full points and widen the gap from Manchester City.
Apart from that, I think if Haaland is guarded closely then Manchester City will also have difficulty scoring goals like the previous match against Wolves which made them suffer their first defeat this season. So Arsenal must really take advantage of every opportunity that exists to be able to take the lead first to the frustration of the Manchester City players.
