Manchester City Team News
In the previous round of the Premier League, Manchester City players beat Leicester at home 3:1. All three goals were scored in the first half, and the guests scored a consolation goal in the 75th minute of the game. Erling Haaland was the double scorer for the home team, and John Stones once shook the visitors’ net.
After the match with Leicester, they played a draw with Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League away from home 1:1, which was enough for them to advance to the next stage and a double-header with Real Madrid. In the semi-finals of the cup, they eliminated Sheffield United with 3:0, and for the title they will fight against the city rival, Manchester United. They occupy the second position in the table with 70 points, five less than their next rival. In the last 16 games in all competitions, they have no defeat, with 13 wins and only three draws.
The only Manchester City player who will not be available to Pep Guardiola due to injury is Nathan Ake. Everyone else is eagerly awaiting the duel with Arsenal.
For the Sheffield United match, John Stones, Ruben Dias, Rodri, and Kevin De Bruyne should return to the starting line-up, while Riyad Mahrez should start from the start, after scoring a hat-trick in that game. Also, the attack will almost certainly be led by Erling Haaland.
Arsenal Team News
In the last round, Arsenal completely unexpectedly played a draw with last-placed Southampton at home, and the result was 3:3. Already in the 14th minute, they were losing 0:2, but six minutes later, Gabriel Martinelli reduced the guests’ lead. In the middle of the second half, the guests increased their advantage, and at the end of the regular part of the game, the home team scored two goals through Martin Odegaard and Bukaya Saka, after which they failed to completely reverse the result.
They still occupy the first position in the table with 75 points won, but they also have two games more than their next rival, Manchester City. In the last three league matches, they recorded all draws. In the Europa League, they were eliminated in the round of 16 by Sporting, after a better penalty kick performance. They were eliminated from the cup in the round of 16 when their next opponent beat them.
William Saliba is likely to miss the rest of the season, which is a big problem for Arsenal, both in this and the next games. Takehiro Tomiyasu and Mohamed Elneny will also watch this match from the stands due to injuries, while Granit Xhaka is likely to be fit, as are Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus.
Granit Xhaka will probably replace Fabio Vieira in midfield, while there should be no other changes in the starting line-up.
