A victory against Arsenal places the Citizens three points behind the Gunners and positions them as the frontrunners for the title, provided they win all their remaining matches.

Mikel Arteta's team faces immense pressure to reach the finish line, but their recent performances have placed them in a precarious position.

Arsenal will need to avoid a defeat until the end of the season if they want to be crowned Premier League champions.
