Arsenal vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Premier League Prediction
Two sides that have done well during the festive period will be facing off on New Year’s Day; Arsenal will play host to Manchester City at the Emirates Stadium. The two sides are separated by 15 points going to the game, Arsenal on 35 and City having hit 50 points. Arsenal will be returning to action after the postponement of their last game, against Wolverhampton Wanderers. They have been scoring a lot lately and there’s great confidence in the team now compared to when they suffered a 5-0 loss to City. The Gunners will be without manager Mikel Arteta, who tested positive for Covid, but will want to carry on with their brand of attacking football. In the last five matches, Arsenal have scored 19 goals and at home they’ve done quite well. In nine league games at home, they have seven wins, a loss and a draw. However, they have just one win over Manchester City in the last 12 meetings.
Manchester City have registered four straight wins against Arsenal ahead of this game and they’ve only conceded one goal in the last four meetings. They will definitely be the favorites here going by their recent form as well as dominance over Arsenal. One thing they will have to cope with though, is Arsenal’s form at home and the fact that the Gunners had extra days of rest before this game. Among the top sides in the league, City and Chelsea are the only ones to have played all their scheduled matches, without any postponements. City have also scored 19 times in their last five matches, and are coming to this game straight from a 1-0 win over Brentford. Three of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they have four clean sheets in the last five matches. Apart from their 6-3 win over Leicester City, Manchester City have been very solid in defence and that is what they’ll want going into this game.
