Manchester City will have the chance to top of the English Premier League when it takes on Southampton at the Etihad Stadium. The ascend to the zenith of the table may be short-lived with Arsenal in action against Liverpool, but nevertheless, it will put a lot of pressure on the Gunners to reciprocate with a win. The defending champions annihilated city rivals Manchester United in their last fixture to make a statement once again. Their squad is one of the bests in Europe if not the best and despite being early on in the season, they are the team to beat. Opponents Southampton is 16th in the league and in terrible form with four defeats in their last five. It will need a massive effort from them to come away with a positive result from Etihad. Manchester City versus Southampton will be telecasted on the Star Sports network and streamed on Hotstar from 7:30 PM IST.
