Latest team news for Man City vs Arsenal
In Sunday's big clash between Man City and Arsenal, both teams will be missing key players who create chances. Man City are without Kevin De Bruyne due to a groin injury, and while Guardiola hasn't ruled out his participation, he doesn't want to risk it as Phil Foden is ready. Foden will make his first appearance of the season, while Nathan Ake and Oscar Bobb are also recovering from injuries.
For Arsenal, captain Odegaard will be absent due to an ankle injury, joining a group of players such as Mikel Merino, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Kieran Tierney who are recovering. Riccardo Calafiori and Bukayo Saka have recovered in time to play, along with Declan Rice returning after suspension.
Gabriel Jesus and Martinelli failed to score in midweek, opening up an opportunity for Raheem Sterling to make his Arsenal debut at the Etihad, but Leandro Trossard is likely to be preferred.

Ederson; Walker, Dias, Akanji, Gvardiol; Kovacic, Rodri; Savinho, Silva, Foden; Haaland

Latest Man City vs Arsenal football match preview
Over 12 months ago, Rodri helped Man City win the Champions League, but in the recent goalless draw with Inter Milan, neither he nor Erling Haaland managed to score.
Despite Man City maintaining a 100% Premier League record thanks to Haaland's comeback against Brentford, they were held to a draw by Inter, ending their perfect start to the season. This draw not only highlighted their goal-scoring struggles but also reflected Inter's resilient defense, particularly in aerial duels, where Ilkay Gundogan missed a crucial opportunity.
Meanwhile, Arsenal also played out a 0-0 draw with Atalanta, thanks to an outstanding performance from goalkeeper David Raya, who successfully saved a penalty and several other dangerous situations. Despite the absence of captain Odegaard, Arsenal maintained their second place in the league table thanks to consistent defensive performances and their ability to control the game.
The upcoming trip to the Etihad promises to be a major challenge for both teams. Arsenal have the potential to make history with their impressive away record, but they haven't won at the Etihad since Arsene Wenger's era. If there's one bright spot in this match, it's the solidity of Arsenal's defense, currently considered one of the best in the world.
Close coordination between the defenders and good covering will be key to limiting the attacking power of Haaland and his teammates. Given the poor form of both teams recently and the absence of De Bruyne and Odegaard, a 0-0 draw seems the most likely scenario in Sunday's clash, but a moment of brilliance from one player cannot be ruled out as a game-changing moment.
