Sunday’s showdown between Manchester City and Arsenal headlines this weekend’s Premier League action as the title rivals go toe-to-toe at the Etihad.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Both sides go into the GW5 extravaganza having fired blanks in the UEFA Champions League<\/a> in midweek. However, one will need to land a knockout blow in what could prove pivotal come the end of the season.<\/p>\n

Man City were held to a goalless draw at home to Inter on Wednesday night. The Gunners had the same outcome against Atalanta on Thursday, with David Raya’s heroics<\/a> salvaging a point in Italy.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, many will be expecting more attacking intent from both sides with three valuable points up for grabs. With that said, it wouldn’t be a huge surprise to see Mikel Arteta’s side try to frustrate the champions.<\/p>\n

That is exactly what happened in the reverse fixture last season. A goalless draw ultimately benefited the Cityzens who went on to claim their fourth successive Premier League<\/a> title.<\/p>\n

The north Londoners haven’t tasted victory at the home of the champions since 2015, when Arsene Wenger was still manager. Santi Cazorla and Olivier Giroud netted in a 2-0 victory.<\/p>\n

In recent years, City have been formidable against the Gunners. They have won 12 of the last 14 league meetings with the only blemishes coming last season.<\/p>\n
