Pep Guardiola has made two changes to the side that beat Napoli in the midweek UEFA Champions League tie as Manchester City prepare to host Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium

Kyle Walker and David Silva have replaced Danilo and Ilkay Gundogan from the midweek game. Gabriel Jesus, meanwhile, is a surprise omission from the starting eleven, having been on the bench on Wednesday as well. Sergio Aguero has started up front, alongside the in-form duo of Leroy Sane and Raheem Sterling.

Arsene Wenger, on the other hand, has made a big tactical change for the game, with four-man backline instead of a back-three. The big news, though, is that Sead Kolasinac is fit to start as the left-back, while Alexandre Lacazette has dropped to the bench, with Alex Iwobi preferred to the Frenchman.
