Manchester City VS Arsenal - Betting Preview

MATCH PREVIEW

The Citizens' most recent match ended a draw against newly promoted Leeds, with Raheem Sterling scoring the only goal for Man City. It looks like Guardiola's side is still struggling to get things going for this new seasons with just two wins from their first four matches. They are in the 14th place in the table with 7 points and Pep Guardiola will be looking to get them back on track for Saturday as they have a very good record against the visiting Arsenal.

As for Arsenal, with 3 of their 4 league matches won, they are sitting in the 4th place, having won their most recent match against Sheffield Utd (2-1) at home. Goals were scored by Pepe and Saka, who also got called for England for the first time for Nations League matches. Arsenal look like they are heading in the right direction under Arteta and it will be a changed side to those who faired so poorly against Man City recently. 

MATCH ANALYSIS

Man City have now found a new rock-solid centre-back in Benfika's Ruben Dias, as the lack of one, cost them too many points last season.Their defensive struggles continued into this campaign, but now they believe they have finally found a Vincent Kompany replacement in £65m defender, who was given his debut against Leeds. This signing may galvanize the team in the longer run, but the games against the Foxes and Leeds showed that the defense is not where they are most vulnerable, as the players in front of them did not put enough pressure on the ball and got by-passed too easily. They weren't tracking the runners or getting up to the ball. They also seemed unable to create any chances, which was the worst thing about both performances, and most worrying for Pep. It is difficult to predict how far they are going to go without their star players, Aguero and Jesus in the attack. However, they are still the powerhouse in the PL, and anything else but the whole three points on Saturday will be a blow for Guardiola's men. 

After leaving several first-teamers out in Carabao Cup against Liverpool, Arsenal's boss Mikel Arteta fielded the strongest possible eleven at the Emirates against Sheffield Utd, This season Arteta's Arsenal set up to attack on the counter, with Aubameyang being the main threat, as was the case in their last four league games. The Gunners  have plenty of reasons to be cheerful under Mikel Arteta and encouraged by last season's FA Cup win against Man City, they will look to make another upset this weekend. That is an illustration of how much they have improved, but it is perfectly understandable why Arteta is not getting carried away, pointing out just how much rebuilding still needs to be done. The win in Manchester is not an imperative, but a good performance is, as they next face Manchester United a Leicester at home.

Tucker Nelson

Tucker grew up in London, more precisely in West London. But, unlike many locals, he doesn’t like big and famous teams from that part of the city. Instead, ever since he was a kid, Tucker was passionate for lower divisions. This passion was born when his uncle from Reading took him to the local derby with Aldershot Town when he was 6 and since that moment football was running through his veins. He became a huge fan of the Royals for life, and whenever he could, he goes to Madejski Stadium to enjoy the game. Apart from being a job, his sports knowledge also becomes more than useful when he is betting live on high stakes which is also his passion.
