It’s been over five games since we saw Kevin De Bruyne produce a link-up goal with Erling Haaland. The duo has been Manchester City‘s not-so-secret ace as they combine to produce some phenomenal goals this season. However, an untimely injury to Kevin put City’s title challenge on the backburner with the side slipping to the 3rd place on the standings. Well, it seems like the team has the chance to make things right in what promises to be a high-voltage encounter.

We are just hours away from one of the biggest games of the season as Arsenal travel to the Etihad Stadium to face Manchester City. There’s a lot on the line, as the winner of the game will take one step closer to the Premier League title. Both City and Arsenal will be eyeing to bag the top spot with the win over their opponents but will have to keep an eye on Liverpool with the Reds hoping to take the cake from the dogfight between the two clubs.

Manchester City has a lot of concerns heading into the game. The defensive pair of Kyle Walker and John Stones have already been ruled out of the game after picking up injuries during the international break. However, fans might have got something positive out of Pep Guardiola‘s press conference last night with the Manchester City head coach providing an update on his players.

According to the Spaniard, both Kevin De Bruyne and Ederson have done well in training and are feeling comfortable. Meanwhile, Manuel Akanji and Jack Grealish have recovered from their respective injuries and will be available for the game. With some of their top players back into the fray for the game, Manchester City are likely to give the table-toppers a run for their money.

Can Kevin De Bruyne inspire Manchester City to a win over the high-flying Arsenal?

If you’d have to compare Arsenal’s run to a mythological character, it’d probably be Icarus! The team is flying too close to the sun with their newfound wings, and everyone knows what happened with Icarus. Manchester City has emerged as the dream crushers in the past five years, with the team maintaining their vice-like grip on the Premier League title. Pep Guardiola’s side has won the league title for three consecutive seasons and will be eyeing a historic fourth at Arsenal’s expense.
