A win in today's match is important for the Gunners since it would give them an edge over the Hotspurs. On the contrary, a win by the Citizens will provide them to close the gap to the Man United at the table top. Moreover, both sides desperately need all three points: Manchester City need to keep their title hopes alive and continue to pressure Manchester United, while Arsenal must regain third place and capitalize on Spurs' draw with Sunderland.
As for the fitness state of the two teams, there are no fresh injury reports from the Gunners, while Manchester City are hopeful striker Sergio Agüero will be fit for Sunday's duel with the Gunners.
Who is favourite this Sunday? The usual question everyone asks. The gunners are in fully charged as in the last six matches, they have lost only one match, while the citizens have won three, lost one and had two drawn. One thing more: Manchester City have not won at Arsenal in the league for more than 36 years since October 1975.
The probable XIs from both sides may include:
Arsenal: Szczesny; Sagna, Vermaelen, Koscielny, Gibbs; Song, Ramsey; Walcott, Arteta, Rosicky; Van Persie.
Manchester City: Hart; Richards, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy; Silva, Y Touré, De Jong, Nasri; Agüero; Balotelli.
