Manchester City take on Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium with an eye on piling on the misery on Mikel Arteta and his Arsenal side after a poor start to the season. The Gunners have lost their opening two games and the manner of the defeats is what has caused an uproar amongst the fans. The team looked short in every department and for their Spanish manager to survive in the job till the turn of the year, they need a quick reversal of fortune. Manchester City on their hand lost their opener to Tottenham Hotspur but came back strong with a 5-0 win over Norwich City. They have a habit of building momentum as the season progresses and the champions will fancy themselves against the Gunners. UEFA Champions League 2021-22 Group Stage: PSG, Manchester City Placed In Group A; Bayern Munich, Barcelona Drawn Together.

Manchester City have suspended full-back Benjamin Mendy while star playmaker Kevin de Bruyne is all set to miss the match due to an ankle problem. Gabriel Jesus is likely to lead the City attack with Riyad Mahrez and Raheem Sterling flanking the Brazilian no 9. Jack Grealish scored his first goal for his new club in the last game and that should take some pressure of his shoulder following a not so impressive start to life in Manchester. Bernardo Silva is likely to get the nod in midfield in the absence Kevin De Bruyne.

Pierre Emerick-Aubameynag should start for Arsenal as the frontman with Emil Smith-Rowe and Bukayo Saka providing the width. New signing Martin Odegaard will slot in as the no 10 while Granit Xhaka and Albert Sambi make up the midfield pair. Ron Holding and Pablo Mari have looked shaky at the back but lack of alternatives means the duo should keep their place in the starting eleven.
