What is going on with Man City? We knew they would have major problems off-field with their court battles but their season is disintegrating fast right in front of everyone's eyes. We also knew that losing Rodri to injury would be a huge blow. But losing 6 out of their last 7 matches is simply mind-blowing and the manner of their losses too is all so uncharacteristic of a Guardiola team. Whatever rotten situation they are in, I think it stops tomorrow with Nottingham Forest coming to town. Haaland will surely be the one that starts producing as his performance reflects directly on the team. They need goals so as to offset all the problems they have at the back. The visitors are no slouch and will be keen to defend and count on the odd Chris Wood goal but I can see the champions reinvigorated for this encounter. Should end in a home win.
New manager Amorim has started well at Man Utd but it is still too early to say if that good phase can continue. He seems to have brightened the squad though and you can see a new impetus in players like Rashford and Amad. Would that be sufficient to worry an Arsenal team that is firing on all cylinders since the return of Odegaard? I don't think so. Arsenal are rampant at the moment and they need to be if they are to catch runaway leaders Liverpool. The last few matches between Arteta's team and the Mancunians have gone in favour of the Spaniard and I expect that trend to continue tomorrow.
Win Dupla: Man City/Arsenal
