Arsenal's Premier League title hopes will face a litmus test as the Gunners welcome champions Manchester City in the Premier League on Wednesday.

Arsenal have had a terrific start to the season and currently lead the Premier League pack with 51 points after 21 games. But they have failed to win the last two Premier League games, which have curbed their lead at the top of the table. The loss against Everton and draw at home against Brentford means Arsenal are just three points ahead of Manchester City in the league table.

Man City, the defending Champions have been chasing the top spot and can overtake Arsenal if they win at the Emirates. Pep Guardiola's men have had some stutters in the season, but will be backing themselves to get all three points against the Gunners.

It will also be a massive battle between Pep Guardiola and his former apprentice Mikel Arteta, who is the current Gunners boss. The battle of the table-toppers will carry monumental consequences as both teams know the ramifications of a defeat.

Arsenal vs Manchester City Team News:

Arsenal will be without the services of Emile Smith Rowe (Thigh), Gabriel Jesus (Knee), Mohamed Elneny (Knee) while Reiss Nelson is also doubtful for the match. Mikel Arteta is expected to go with the same starting lineup, but if there is a change, it can be at the left wing as Leandro Trossard may come in place of Gabriel Martinelli. Trossard scored his first Arsenal goal in the last match against Brentford.

Manchester City striker Erlink Haaland is doubtful for the trip to North London after the striker suffered a niggle in the last match. John Stones is the only definite absentee as the England defender is out with a hamstring injury.

Arsenal vs Manchester City Probable Lineup:

Arsenal: Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Xhaka, Partey; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Nketiah

Man City: Ederson; Walker, Dias, Laporte; Rodri, Bernardo Silva; Mahrez, De Bruyne, Gundogan, Grealish; Alvarez
