Arsenal face City in potential title decider

Last Updated : 17-Apr-2026 by Gary Purvis

Arsenal head to the Etihad Stadium this Sunday for a seismic top of the table clash against Manchester City that many pundits believe will decide the Premier League title.

Mikel Arteta’s side currently holds a six point lead over the defending champions, although City possess a crucial game in hand.

The Gunners enter the match following a 2-1 defeat to Bournemouth last weekend and a goalless draw against Sporting Lisbon that secured their passage to the Champions League semi finals.

City, by contrast, thrashed Chelsea 3-0 in their most recent league outing.

A victory for Arsenal would extend their lead to nine points with only a month of the season remaining, while a City win would bring the title race back into their own hands.
