Before the match
Club football has just returned from the international break, and the English Championship is already cranking up the pace at full speed. The 30th round will close on Sunday, the 31st will open on Tuesday, then it’s game weekend again and Manchester City and Arsenal will return to the Champions League fields. In general, the schedule is disastrous. And this despite the fact that they are about to close the 30th round of the Premier League. Josep Guardiola’s gang, hungry for revenge, will host their rivals at the Etihad. In the first round, Arsenal won with a score of 1:0, with Gabi Martinelli scoring the only goal in the end.
The “townies” may be hungry for revenge, but they won’t rush off right away. Firstly, you can fall under the Gunners’ counterattacks. Bukayo Saka was resting, missing the national team games, Martin Odegaard is also not working for Norway – the team is still not going to Euro 2024. Actually, Erling Haaland, who is not having such a bright second season for Manchester City, returned with approximately the same feelings. Yes, there are flashes like the penta-trick against Luton, but in the long run Erling has lost much of his former self.
The Norwegian scorer for Manchester City scored a total of 18 goals in 28 rounds. For Haaland these are meager numbers, Ollie Watkins is only two goals behind, and according to the goal+pass system he is generally three points ahead. And the “townspeople” themselves are only third in the number of goals scored in the Premier League. 63 goals – they lose to Liverpool (65 goals) and Arsenal (70), very close to the modest Aston Villa, which scored 60. This season, Manchester City is not a machine for dominant victories. And in general, he’s still third in the standings.
Forecast for the match “Manchester City” – “Arsenal”
Of course, the hosts are considered the favorites of the top Premier League match. But the giants of English football have already taught us that their meeting is reminiscent of a get-together between two gentlemen. Everything is very calm, neat, orderly. No one will take risks, because the risk of exposing the zone and running into a devastating counterattack is the highest, and scoring in a positional offensive is not a guarantee that it will happen. Manchester City will play with an advantage, but will not force things. 1:0 in response to the most boring 0:1 in the first round will suit the “citizens” quite well. Moreover, the only major victories this year for Guardiola’s gang were defeats of no-names in the FA Cup – Luton received 6:2, and Huddersfield – 5:0. The game against Arsenal is expected to be closed as usual.
