Man City vs Arsenal live stream: How to watch Premier League fixture online and on TV today

Manchester City host Arsenal in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Pep Guardiola’s side have endured a difficult start to the new campaign, taking just four points from three games, including a humbling defeat against Leicester.

They are still heavy favourites against the Gunners, but are also being forced to juggle a number of injury concerns, with Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus recovering from injuries, while Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling both returned early from international duty.

Meanwhile, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal revolution is continuing at full speed, winning three of their first four games, while the £45m addition of Thomas Partey on deadline day has added serious quality and depth to their midfield.

What is the team news?

Kevin de Bruyne is a doubt for Man City after returning early from international duty with Belgium. Sergio Aguero has returned to training but is still regaining full fitness, while Gabriel Jesus is injured. Raheem Sterling also left England’s camp early, although that decision was said to have been taken as a precaution.

Thomas Partey could make his debut after joining the Gunners for £45m on deadline day. However, Kieran Tierney is unlikely to feature after coming into close contact with a Covid-positive teammate while on international duty with Scotland.

What are the odds?

Man City 2/5

Draw 17/4

Arsenal 5/1
