Tempo is likely at Emirates Stadium when Arsenal challenge Manchester City in what promises to be a terrific game. Here's all you need to know!
- Arsenal have not yet lost a game at home.
- Manchester City have the most scored goals (56) in Premier League
It's no vacation for neither Arsenal nor Manchester City as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Arsenal form and stats
Arsenal have been very solid at home in the Premier League so far, with 26 points collected from 10 matches (8-2-0). This has contributed greatly to their 1st position in the table.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Arsenal, who played 1-1 against Brentford. That match was also played at this venue (Emirates Stadium). Trossard was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Brentford after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today? Partey (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.13/10. Partey hit five key passes, dribled past the opponent 4 of 4 times and had 78 successful passes (of 87 total).
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Everton (0-1).There will be little rest for Arsenal after this match as they are travelling to Aston Villa for a Premier League game in only three days.
Arsenal are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (26 goals in 10 games). On the other hand, Arsenal have conceded 11 goals.
Manchester City form and stats
The visitors are W5-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Premier League. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Manchester City have lost on their last two travels.
Manchester City won their last game, 3-1 versus Aston Villa played at home. Midfielder Rodri was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.41. Rodri scored one goal, hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 91 successful passes (of 100 total).
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Tottenham Hotspur wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the City manager i Sala as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Nottingham Forest.
Manchester City has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 15 goals from 10 games. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far).
