Match Facts

  • Arsenal have won two of their last four league meetings with Manchester City (D2), as many as their previous 22 beforehand (D5 L15). The Gunners could win back-to-back league games against the Citizens for the first time since December 2015.

  • Manchester City have lost both of their last two Premier League visits to Arsenal, as many as their previous 14 beforehand (W7 D5 L2). It’s their longest losing run away to the Gunners since April 2009 (4 in a row).

  • Arsenal have won their last three Premier League home games by an aggregate score of 9-0. They last won four in a row without conceding in December 2021, while they last won their first three at home in a season without conceding in 1960-61.

  • Manchester City have lost five of their last seven Premier League games immediately following a European game in midweek (W2), including a 5-1 loss at Arsenal in February. Their previous five such defeats came over a period of 46 games in five years (W27 D14).

  • Only Bournemouth (9) have had more direct attacks than Arsenal in the Premier League this season (8, an average of 2 per game). Last season, the Gunners ranked 11th for direct attacks (1.7 per game).

  • With Man City winless in four Premier League games against Arsenal, Pep Guardiola could go five games without a top-flight league win against an opponent for the very first time. Mikel Arteta could also become the first manager ever to go five league games unbeaten against Guardiola.

  • Man City’s Erling Haaland has scored four goals in six Premier League appearances against Arsenal, while he has 19 goals in 20 league games in London. Among players to play 1,000+ minutes in away Premier League games in the capital, Haaland has the best minutes per goal ratio (one every 93 mins).

  • Viktor Gyökeres has scored in both of his two Premier League home games for Arsenal (3 goals in total). The only player to score in each of his first three for the club in the competition was Alexandre Lacazette in 2017.

  • Arsenal striker Viktor Gyökeres has applied more pressures in the final third than any other player in the Premier League this season (166). Meanwhile, Man City’s #9 Erling Haaland has applied more pressures in the opponent’s penalty area than anyone else (65).

  • Gianluigi Donnarumma made two saves and kept a clean sheet on his Premier League debut in Man City’s 3-0 win against Man Utd last weekend. The only keepers to record a clean sheet in their first two starts for the Citizens are Kasper Schmeichel (August 2007) and Stefan Ortega (May 2023).
