Team news & squads

Manchester City team news

Pep Guardiola only has to worry about the fitness of Nathan Ake who is recovering from a thigh injury. The former Chelsea defender was the match-winner against Arsenal when the two teams met in the fourth round of the FA Cup in January.

Erling Haaland has scored 32 goals already and will once again want to be the one who makes the difference in the final third. He has eight more goals than Harry Kane who is second in the race for the Golden Boot.

Haaland has already equalled Mohamed Salah's record tally of 32 goals in a 38-game season. He is a hat-trick away from breaking the goal record of Alan Shearer and Andy Cole who both scored 34 goals in a 42-game league season.

Man City predicted XI: Ederson; Akanji, Dias, Laporte; Stones, Rodri; Mahrez, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Grealish; Haaland

Position	Players
Goalkeepers:	Ederson, Carson, Ortega
Defenders:	Dias, Akanji, Gomez, Walker, Lewis, Stones, Laporte

Arsenal team news

With Erling Haaland threatening to take the game away from Arsenal in his current form, Mikel Arteta's biggest concern will be in defence. William Saliba remains unavailable as he continues his recovery and Rob Holding will once again have to deputise.

Granit Xhaka is expected to return after an illness ruled him out of the draw against Southampton. Takehiro Tomiyasu and Mohamed Elneny have already been ruled out for the season.

Arsenal predicted XI: Ramsdale; White, Holding, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Xhaka, Partey; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Jesus

Position	Players
Goalkeepers:	Ramsdale, Turner.
Defenders:	Gabriel, Kiwior, Holding, White, Zinchenko
