Manchester City host Arsenal in the Premier League this weekend, in an early-season clash with high stakes.

The Gunners have fallen agonisingly short in their quest for the title over the last two seasons, with Mikel Arteta’s team narrow runners-up in each of the last two campaigns. Their fixture at the Etihad on Sunday provides each team with a chance to make a statement and underlined their championship credentials for 2024/25.

Arsenal possible starting lineup:
Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber; Havertz, Partey, Rice; Saka, Jesus, Trossard
