Man City’s Form
Man City are looking to continue their domination of the Premier League which they have won 5 of the last 6 seasons by securing their fourth league title in a row. They have already won the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World this season and remain favourites for league glory again along with the FA Cup and Champions League.
Before the International Break Man City secured their passage to the FA Cup Semi-Final following a 2-0 victory against Newcastle after a brace from Bernardo Silva. Their last league game came against Liverpool on the 10 th of March where they played out a 1-1 draw at Anfield when an early Stones goal was cancelled out by a Mac Allister penalty.
Victory could put City on top and at a minimum, it would mean they leapfrog Arsenal.

Man City v Arsenal Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Man City 2-1 Arsenal
City's stranglehold on the league looks to be fiercely under threat due to the form of their rivals Liverpool and Arsenal, but know what it takes to grind out results and win trophies far more than both squads which will be their edge in the remaining months.
Arsenal are underdogs, which is arguably very disrespectful considering the form they’ve been in and will be full of confidence ahead of this game.
This is very difficult to call, but I think City might edge it.
