In the last two months, Arsenal has scored 17 goals and allowed only eight.

Manchester City sits as the best defense of the tournament, with 25 goals against. Vincent Kompany, Joleon Lescott and Micah Richards will try to stop Arsène Wegner's boys.  

What they're saying

Robin van Persie assured the team can secure third in the Premier League.

"

We have seven more games to play and I believe we can come third. It won't be easy, everyone is fighting for every point and our opportunity is next week against Man City. We have to go for it and believe and we will.

"

Manchester City’s boss Roberto Mancini is confident that the team will achieve the main goal.

"

We have 71 points, 13 points ahead of Arsenal and 18 points more than Chelsea…I think we have improved from last season, it is clear we want to win the title and we will fight until the derby because I think that game will decide our season.

"

Prediction: Arsenal win 2-1

Arsenal comes off from a defeat against QPR, which puts the club in debt with the fans. Winning at Emirates Stadium is a must as the Gunners seek to continue their undefeated streak against the Citizens in the Premier League. 

Manchester City lacks the creativity and strength it had in the first half of the season, and has a lot of pressure as the title can be decided in this match.
