Sports bettors suspect that Manchester City will overcome Arsenal at Etihad Stadium

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Carabao Cup game only three days ago. That game was also an away game, at West Bromwich Albion. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Manchester City form and stats

Manchester City have only played one Premier League game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 13 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from 19 matches.

A nice win for City last time playing, versus Norwich City. That was also a home game and the match ended 5-0 with Raheem Sterling, Aymeric Laporte, Riyad Mahrez and Jack Grealish scoring for the victors. Gabriel Jesus, who plays in attack, was the top performer for the team in that game, scoring a rating of 8.15 (out of 10). Jesus signed up for two assists, hit three key passes, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 64 successful passes (of 69 total). As mentioned above, Manchester City "killed" Norwich City in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Tottenham Hotspur (0-1).

At Etihad Stadium, Manchester City has the goal stats of 5-0 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.

Arsenal form and stats

Arsenal have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Premier League were 10 victories, 3 draws and 6 defeats from 19 fixtures.

Arsenal aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 210 league minutes without a goal. N. Pepe was the last player to find the net.

Arsenal play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 6-0 victory visiting West Bromwich Albion. Attacker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got a player rating of 9.43 in the game. "Man of the match" Aubameyang scored three goals, served one assist and hit one key pass. As mentioned above, Arsenal was the only team on the pitch versus West Bromwich Albion in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang certainly enjoyed Arsenal's last game versus West Bromwich Albion, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 6-0 victory. A victory against West Bromwich Albion as mentioned above, but the margin of victory could have been bigger as Arsenal hit the posts three times.

The game before that, in the Premier League, was lost at home, a 0-2 defeat against Chelsea.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Arsenal has managed 0 goals and let in 2 from 1 match.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: nine - zero - one (City wins - draws - Arsenal wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
