LATEST UPDATE: Arsenal Vs Manchester City 2 - 2 - (Live)!
Arsenal faces the biggest test of EPL this season in week 4,when the Arsene Wenger men confronts the noisy neighbo our.Arsenal drew 1:1at Leicester,while Stokes beat Man City 1-0 at Ethiad on September 13,after international breaks.....It promise to be massive......
Arsenal were frustrated in a 1-1 draw at the newly promoted Leicester, while the Citizens after being backed so heavily for three points, suffered a shock 1-0 home loss against Stoke.Even though the Citizens go into this match as the favourites with the bookmakers, they do so only narrowly, but there isn’t a lot to genuinely warrant backing them here. The only thing which could be in their favour really is that defeat against Stoke. Manuel Pellegrini will be expecting a response from his side, and it could have been the rocket that they needed to get them going. They have looked a very boring and laborious side this season, not controlling possession and being slow to the ball in all of their matches so far.But the Citizens have won just one of seventeen previous visits to Arsenal in the Premier League. That lone victory from them was a 2-0 win back in the 2012/13 season, and incidentally, it has been the only occasion in those seventeen visits where they have managed to score more than one goal. So history really isn’t on their side for this one, and they could be facing their first back to back loss scenario in the top flight since October of 2010.So Arsenal do have form, even though they have won just one of their last four league games against the Citizens. The Gunners are currently on a 19 match (W14 D5) unbeaten streak at home in the Premier League, winning each of their last four. Like City, Arsenal have been missing a spark this season too, things just not clicking or flowing with any kind of urgency. There has to be better to come from them and this is a big chance for them to prove it.At least they have a striker now who should be in great spirits, as new arrival and England hero Danny Welbeck will get his debut for the Gunners. He is a 2/1 quote in the anytime goalscorer market, a long way back of even money favourite Sergio Aguero who has scored eight goals in his last ten away games in the top flight though. While there probably will be a propensity to look for goals in this one, only two of the last nine meetings have seen more than 2.5 goals in them.The timing for Arsenal could be huge in this one. They have the home form to avoid defeat here, and at even money for a Draw No Bet on the Gunners, that really can’t be passed up. Their only concern is at the back, having conceded four goals from seven shots on target against them this season.
Aaron Ramsey is running against time to be fit for this game,likewise Joevetic,Arsenal will likely welcome the last day signing from ManU,Welbeck to his first start.
