Team News:

• Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus are injured, hence keeping them out of action for Arsenal. Martin Odegaard might also miss out due to fitness issues.
• Manchester City will be without the services of Omar Marmoush, Rayan Cherki, Rayan Ait Nouri and Mateo Kovacic as they are injured. John Stones’ availability will depend on his match fitness.

Player(s) to watch:

• Martin Zubimendi will be looking to be impactful yet again for Arsenal. From regulating the ball well in the midfield to scoring goals, the 26-year-old Spanish midfielder is going to create problems for the opponents. He scored a brace in his last Premier League game and will be yet again ready to help his side.
• Erling Haaland is going to play an important role in the attacking front for Man City. Pep Guardiola’s men did face issues in the final third against Arsenal, but as Erling Haaland is looking sharp, the Cityzens are going to have a better chance of scoring goals this time.
