Manchester City vs Arsenal Prediction

There isn't much between the top two sides in the Premier League right now in terms of form, but hosts Manchester City are unbeaten in their last nine league games and edge the form guide.

The Citizens have picked up six wins during their nine-game unbeaten run in the league, thrashing Chelsea 3-0 last time out.

The Gunners have also picked up six wins from their last nine Premier League matches, but a shock defeat to Bournemouth at home last weekend could be cause for concern heading into the final six matches of the campaign.

Pep Guardiola's side drew in September's reverse league meeting between the two clubs, and City came out on top when the pair met in the League Cup final last month.

Antoine Semenyo has started all 10 league games since making the move from Bournemouth in January. The Ghana international has scored five times in the league for his new employers, as well as providing one assist.

Semenyo is averaging 0.45 goals to shots on target in the league for Manchester City, a higher average than Erling Haaland, and has found the back of the net in two of his last four appearances.

We're backing the hosts to edge out their guests and set up a thrilling title race between the pair.

Manchester City 2-1 Arsenal
