In today's video I provide a tactical preview looking ahead to the crunch match at the top of the Premier League table, this Sunday: Manchester City vs Arsenal. We focus on Arsenal's change in tactical approach against Ange Postecoglou's Spurs side, and how that provides the template to BEAT Pep Guardiola's Man City. We also delve into Arsenal's 0-0 draw with Atalanta in the Champions League on Thursday, analysing why the fluidity Mikel Arteta allowed his team, as well as the defensive solidity once again, can cause problems for Man City.
I also cover Pep Guardiola's tactics and his changes to his Man City team in-possession this season, why they matter, as well as potential avenues Arsenal can exploit. There is particular focus on their 0-0 draw with Inter Milan in the first league phase game of the Champions League, their 2-1 victory over Brentford in the 2024/25 Premier League.
Arsenal come into the tie off the back of a 0-1 win in the North London Derby against Tottenham Hotspur, and will be looking towards Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz, Declan Rice, Thomas Partey, Gabriel Martinelli, Jurrien Timber, William Saliba, David Raya, Gabriel Magalhaes, Ben White, and more once again if they are to beat City, and go top of the Premier League. Will Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling, Jorginho, or Riccardo Calafiori make starts?
As for Man City, the key question will be if Kevin De Bruyne will be fit for the clash with the Gunners? Will Phil Foden take his place? And does Pep go for the same tactical set-up he has deployed this season? Using Bernardo Silva in a freer role, Rico Lewis in the high right pocket, Erling Haaland in the middle, flanked by the likes of Jack Grealish, Jeremy Doku, and Savinho. Rodri will return, will Kovacic partner him? Who will make the defensive line out of Kyle Walker, John Stones, Akanji, Ruben Dias, and Josko Gvardiol?
This channel covers the entire Premier League, including Manchester United, Eric ten Hag, Liverpool, Arne Slot, Aston Villa, Unai Emery, Chelsea, Enzo Maresca, the Champions League, Europa League, and much more!
