JAKARTA - Week 33 of the Premier League will present a big match between Manchester City and Arsenal. This match will take place at the Etihad Stadium on Thursday, April 27 at 02.00 WIB.

This match is predicted to be exciting and fierce. The reason is that both teams are currently competing for the top position in the final standings.

So far, Arsenal are still in first place with 75 points from 32 matches. The record makes the Gunners five points ahead of City who are in second place with 70 points.

Despite pocketing five more points from The Citizens, Arsenal's position is not safe. Their potential opponent this time still has two matches postponed as a reserve.

The performance of Josep Guardiola's team also pressed Arsenal's position. Recently, The Citizens continued to accelerate through successive victories in the Premier League match.

While in the Arsenal camp, their performance is inversely proportional to their potential opponent. Mikel Arteta's team only dreamed of winning three draws in their last three matches.

The six points wasted in the previous match are clearly very detrimental to Arsenal. This situation made victory a fixed price for the Gunners when they visited City headquarters.

If Arsenal lose, a nightmare will haunt Arteta and his players who are trying to catch the title this season. Losing at City headquarters is not impossible to make Martin Odegaard and his friends even more threatened.

Ahead of this meeting Arsenal bagged a less flashy record. From the last five meetings, the Gunners have always lost to a club from Manchester. Most recently they lost 1-3 to City at their own base while undergoing the first half of the season.

Player Composition Forecast:

Manchester City (3-4-2-1): Ederson; Laporte, Dias, Stones; Grealish, Gundogan, Rodri, Mahrez; Bernardo Silva, De Bruyne; Haaland. Coach: Josep Guardiola

Arsenal (4-3-3): Ramsdale; Zinchenko, Magalhaes, Holding, White; Xhaka, Partey, Odegaard; Martinelli, Jesus, Saka. Coach: Mikel Arteta
