Team Analysis
Friends become foes for 90 minutes once again on Sunday afternoon, as Mikel Arteta's Arsenal host Pep Guardiola's Manchester City in a mouthwatering Premier League main event. Should the reigning champions prevail at the Emirates Stadium, the gap to the Gunners in the top-flight table would be a mere three points - scarcely believable in the wake of their winter-time plight.

All bets should have been placed on Arsenal being the ones to capitalise on any Manchester City calamities this season, but the Gunners now find themselves in a situation where they can more or less kiss the title goodbye without victory over Guardiola's charges. While Arsenal can put their feet up - potentially in their favourite Dubai haven - for 10 days in February, Manchester City must navigate a blockbuster two-legged UCL playoff against none other than Real Madrid after just about managing to save their continental bacon.

Odds Analysis
One-nil lightning could very well strike twice at the Emirates on Sunday, where more of Arsenal's star names will be well-rested following their respective Champions League exertions, and the indomitable pairing of Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba relish coming up against Erling Haaland. A classic is unlikely to be in store, but assuming Arsenal can avoid another high-profile sending-off, the Gunners have our vote to strike once and shut up shop to keep Liverpool on their toes.

Pick: Arsenal
