Manchester City beat Arsenal in an absorbing contest at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday to draw to within three points of the Premier League leaders. As a result, if Pep Guardiola's men win their game in hand at Burnley in midweek, they'll replace the Gunners at the top of the table on goal difference.

Arsenal fans love to chant, 'Tottenham Hotspur it's happening again' every time their north London rivals suffer a big defeat.

On Sunday, Arsenal finally travel to the Etihad Stadium to take on Manchester City in what has been marked in the calendar as potential title-decider for months. But with the two sides separated by just six points at the top of the table, and City holding a crucial game in hand, Mikel Arteta's out-of-sorts Gunners shouldn't feel like they need to live up to the much-hyped occasion.
