Why you should back Manchester City
The Citizens have dominated the head-to-head series against Arsenal recently. Prior to the Gunners' 1-0 victory over Manchester City on Oct. 8, Arsenal had not beaten City in league play since 2015, a stretch of 15 games. That was the Gunners' longest winless streak against a single opponent in league history. Also, Arsenal have lost their last eight league matches at the Etihad.
In addition, Manchester City have arguably the best defensive midfielder in the world in Rodri. The 27-year-old Spaniard, who missed the club's Oct. 8 loss at Arsenal, has gone over a calendar year without having tasted defeat for club or country. That's 61 games, including 53 for the Citizens, across all competitions without a loss (prior to penalties). Counting only Premier League matches, City are unbeaten in the last 59 games in which Rodri has appeared. See which team to pick here.
Why you should back Arsenal
The Gunners enter Sunday's showdown on a roll. They have won all eight Premier League matches they have played to start the year, becoming just the fourth EPL team to pull off that feat. The previous three teams -- Manchester United in 2009, Liverpool in '20 and Man City in '21 -- all went on to win the title that year. Over their eight-match run, Arsenal have outscored their opponents 33-4.
In addition, the Gunners have a defense that can lock down the Man City attack. Led by William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes, Arsenal have allowed the fewest goals in the league (24). They also lead the league in clean sheets (11). See which team to pick here.
