Manchester city have broken their bad losing streak and we all know what that actually means because they will be red hot wanting to gather as much point as they can and one thing about these two teams is that Manchester city always find a way to get the three point over arsenal although arsenal this time around is looking well structured and I think their squad is fully activated and not suffering from injury as the way they were during the two time clash between the two teams .
This is a fairly even match, both teams have almost the same quality of players. Interestingly, the style of play used by Arteta and Guardiola is not much different, they both apply a modern football scheme which really satisfies the audience. Arsenal has big ambitions to beat Manchester City, three points is a fixed price to be realized and I think Arteta has prepared a special strategy to be able to beat Guardiola's troops. I predict Arsenal will be able to win that match.
Mikel Arteta is actually the person who best understands the strategy that Pep Guardiola always plays. Because he was Pep Guardiola's assistant at Manchester City for three years. So it is very natural that the strategies used by Arteta are sometimes not much different from those used by Guardiola. But the young coaches who have worked with Pep Guardiola have actually become quite talented as coaches. They become coaches who can bring good results to the clubs they handle. An example is Arteta, who ever was Guardiola's assistant. Then Xavi ever was also under Guardiola's tutelage. And now Xavi is a great coach at Barcelona.
So the Arsenal vs Manchester City match is sometimes referred to as a teacher vs student match. And that's not wrong. Even though Arteta is not Pep's student. But he learned a lot from Pep when he was Pep's assistant.
