I see that the performance of Manchester City players is quite even in all their lines and indeed they have proven that they do not experience a decline in performance when there is player rotation, the same goes for what will happen in the future...
Except that player is Rodri. The team has struggled a lot when Rodri is not on the pitch, leading to him being played a high number of times. IT is a surprise that his form is not all over the place judging from how many minutes he plays. He is a beast of a player.
The odds for Arsenal to win is still very high, worth trying my luck with one or two other entries.

Rodri is definitely a very important player in the Manchester City squad. Manchester City's midfield remains stable with Rodri in the squad. But I think Kevin De Bruyne is the most important player for Manchester City than Rodri. De Bruyne is a fantastic player. He is able to stabilize the midfield, assist and score when the team needs it. And Manchester City will not have this important player with the squad against Arsenal. De Bruyne, Kyle Walker, Akenji and Ederson will not be with the squad for this match.
On the other hand, Arsenal's squad will be without two key players like Bukayo Saka and Martinelli. However, the match is Manchester City's home match. Manchester City lost 1-0 against Arsenal in the away match. Manchester City will try hard to win the home match.
