ARS Vs MCI Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Arsenal take on high flying Manchester City in Sunday’s match of the day.
They might have managed to decimate Leeds United 4-2 in their bygone clash but when Arsenal face off against Manchester City today, they know this opposition is a completely different entity.
Where Arsenal are still struggling to string together two wins in succession, Manchester City’s juggernaut is tearing the league apart. The club sits atop of the Premier League, having won 17 matches in succession to hold a 10 point lead in first place.
What Arsenal can take heart from though ahead of the matchup is Mikel Arteta and his acclimatisation with Pep’s brand of football.

Goal-Keeper
Had it not been for Bernd Leno, Arsenal could have easily ended up slipping to a winless result against Leeds United.
Defenders
He will find company in the services of Hector Bellerin who scored in the same contest.
Manchester City on the other hand will see us opt for an entire trio. The club has the four cleansheets to its name in the last month alone, figures which made it befitting to opt for Oleksandr Zinchenko, John Stones and Ruben Dias.
Midfielders
He’s finally back on his feet and with the go ahead to play today, Manchester City’s top scorer, Ilkay Gundogan becomes the first pick from the club in this slot.
He’s joined by the returning Kevin de Bruyne who has the most assists for the side at 10. Phil Foden’s match winning strike against Everton sees him complete the trio from the club.
Arsenal on the other hand will be represented by Bukayo Saka who has helped himself to the five goals with Granit Xhaka lining up alongside him.
Strikers
Our set of picks for the day are wrapped up by Raheem Sterling who has accrued the 8 goals and 5 assists this season.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Ilkay’s 11 goals make him our captain while Kevin is the vice-captain.
