The Man City vs Arsenal live streams serve up a prospective Premier League title decider at the Eithad this Sunday. Mikel Arteta’s men control their own destiny, in theory at least. They’re six points clear at the top of the table, albeit having played one more game than City, but the sense of deja vu is looming larger by the week.
The same approach backfired spectacularly in last month’s Carabao Cup final, a game that many have interpreted as a prophesy of things to come. Nico O’Reilly scored twice in a 2-0 win, but more than anything it was the insipid manner of the defeat that has set Arsenal fans on edge – the dual anxieties forging a familiar doom cycle – and ignited Pep Guardiola’s hopes.
Man City’s disastrous Champions League campaign has at least afforded Guardiola a week of prep time, time on the training ground he probably needs given Erling Haaland’s extended malaise. Having scored 19 in his first 17 league games this season, the Norwegian has now managed just three in his last 13. Antoine Semenyo and O’Reilly aside, few others are chipping in on a consistent basis.
Max Dowman’s emergence has been a huge positive for Arsenal, although the outsized contribution of a 16-year-old serves to highlight the team’s attacking deficiencies. There are few players in Europe more singularly destructive than Eberechi Eze, who incidentally also has an excellent record against Man City, but he’s been peripheral in red. A flurry of high-profile errors from Ben White, meanwhile, have undermined Arsenal’s previously rock-solid backline.
