Arsenal host Manchester City in a massive Premier League clash which could determine whether they can compete for the title this season.
Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over Bournemouth on Saturday saw Arne Slot’s men open a nine-point lead over the Gunners who must defeat Pep Guardiola’s team this afternoon to ensure they keep up the pace with the league leaders. Mikel Arteta’s side secured a 1-0 over Wolves in a controversial outing last time out but face one of the tougher tests of the season today.
City are starting to regain their impressive form following back-to-back victories in the league. A 6-0 mauling of Ipswich was followed by 3-1 win over Chelsea and Guardiola’s men were also victorious in the Champions League and qualified for the play-off rounds. That gives them a bit of momentum heading into the match though both clubs are finely balanced.

OFF THE BAR! From the set-piece, Timber’s header at the front post hits the woodwork and bounces out.
Arsenal make another couple of changes as Lewis-Skelly and Havertz come off for Riccardo Calafiori and Raheem Sterling.

Arsenal 4-1 Man City
Arsenal are certainly hunting a fifth too, with Nwaneri seeing his cross put behind by Akanji.

Arsenal 4-1 Man City
Silva catches Nwaneri with a late challenge, and he might get a booking when the period of play ends.
‘Ole’ is ringing around the Emirates as Arsenal string together plenty of passes.
Silva avoids a booking in the end.

Arsenal 4-1 Man City
A lovely little turn from Gabriel on the edge of the box plays in Timber, but he can’t create anything and has to settle for a corner, which eventually comes to nothing.
Chris Wilson2 February 2025 18:13
Arsenal 4-1 Man City
A nice combination in attack between Odegaard, Havertz and Lewis-Skelly, before Gabriel wins a free-kick.
Arsenal make their first changes of the evening as Odegaard and Trossard make way for Mikel Merino and Ethan Nwaneri.

Arsenal 4-1 Man City
The ball breaks free to Odegaard midway into the City half but he misses the run of Trossard, who would have been clean through, and instead sees his pass to Havertz cleared before Arsenal win a corner.
From the set-piece, Gabriel tries the extravagant overhead effort, but he can’t connect with it properly.

GOAL! Arsenal 4-1 Man City
GOAL! Brilliant from the hosts and that is the result wrapped up.
Arsenal win the ball on the edge of their box and there’s acres of space ahead of Partey. He only has to play one pass and Havertz is 1-v-1 with Ortega.
He races into the box and cuts back outside before rifling an effort into the far corner.

Arsenal 3-1 Man City
Some great play from Timber to win a corner when isolated, and Arsenal fans are enjoying themselves at the moment.
From the set-piece, Odegaard’s ball in is punched away by Ortega, but Arsenal win it back immediately.
Chris Wilson2 February 2025 18:01
Arsenal 3-1 Man City
A needless booking for Odegaard, who thinks he’s won the ball on the edge of the box and is booked for dissent.
City make two changes, as Foden and Marmoush make way for Kevin De Bruyne and James McAtee.
