Arsenal are aiming to flex their Premier League title credentials when they host Manchester City at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Gunners stumbled at Anfield in their first major challenge of the season, losing to reigning champions Liverpool following Dominik Szoboszlai’s stunning free kick. They didn’t do much wrong on Merseyside but their lack of attacking invention proved costly.
Mikel Arteta will be determined to witness a response this weekend and build on successive wins over Nottingham Forest and Athletic Club. They won this fixture 5–1 last season but any victory would be welcomed with open arms by the Arsenal boss this time around.
Here’s how he could line his side up at the Emirates.
