A Premier League marquee match is about to take place, with Manchester City hosting Arsenal. Currently trailing Arsenal by one point, City will go all out at home in order to turn things around, and Coach Diao's guidance will be crucial. The team's home record of 8 wins and 1 draw in their last 9 matches is almost unbeatable, and Adidas' experience in bidding for the title is not to be underestimated, so the Blue Moon's road to winning the title seems to be just around the corner.
Manchester City is currently one point behind Arsenal and Liverpool in the EPL three-team race. A failure to win tonight's game will make it even more difficult for City to win the six-point wave, so they are desperate for three points. With the likes of Ainin Zaha and Phil Cotton not to be underestimated in attack, and with Kiyun Dibny missing out due to injury to preserve the strength of the team, the power of the front line is guaranteed tonight.
Blue Moon manager Pep Guardiola has won seven and lost one of the last eight Premier League encounters with former Manchester City assistant coach Ardida, with the only loss occurring in the first round robin, by a 0-1 scoreline. However, back at home, Guardiola has no revenge mentality. In contrast, City have more experience of winning titles and their players are better at dealing with pressure.
Arsenal have won consecutive away games recently, but the opponents are generally weak and have yet to be truly tested. In fact, Arsenal's record on the road this season is not ideal, having suffered defeats at the hands of Newcastle United, Aston Villa and Fulham. Facing Manchester City, who have a strong home field, Arsenal may find it difficult to resist and are more likely to lose three points.
