Arsenal will be desperate to bounce back to winning ways when they take on Manchester City for the second time in the space of a week.

Tonight’s clash takes place at the Emirates stadium while kick off scheduled for 19:45 (GMT).

The Gunners fund themselves under intense pressure after they suffered a 3-0 defeat in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday.

Arsene Wenger have even found his position at the north London based club by his former player Ian Wright.

Man City meanwhile can increase the point gap between themselves and second-placed Manchester United with a win tonight.

Man City will be without their key defensive midfielder Fernandinho due to injury. However, striker Gabriel Jesus is expected to make a return after recovering from a knee injury.

Arsenal can call upon Henrikh Mkhitaryan who was ineligible for the League Cup final on Sunday.
