I expect the citizens to floor the Gunners in their home when they meet on Sunday. Arsenal have been impressive of late but they're a long way from beating Pep's men and haven't been able to win in all their 13 times they've recently met. As it is, Guardiola has trained his boys to see every game as important and a game like this will not be treated differently.
I know Arteta will want to pull the rug from under Guardiola as they pay a visit to the Emirates Stadium but the question to ask is, can he?
Yes he can, Arsenal already show how strong they can be against Manchester City when they played in the community shield and Arsenal were able to win that. Arsenal's home is also a kind of stronghold for the club, and even without the threat of Saka, they can still hand the citizens their second defeat of the season. De Bruyne whose one favorite team to play in the premier league is Arsenal will not play, Rodri will not also play, so Arsenal with their strong midfield can have a square battle with Manchester City's midfield. Manchester City is the pick of many people to win the game, but Arsenal can do something, the players have a better mentality than last season.
