The Gunners kick off the 2022 domestic football calendar in high spirits following four Premier League wins on the spin.

Mikel Arteta's men sit fourth in the table, a successful start to the campaign according to Lee Dixon after he spoke exclusively to RadioTimes.com to review Arsenal's 2021/22 season so far.

City have won their last 10 top flight games on the bounce and will be determined to keep that run flowing in to the new year.

Pep Guardiola's men sit top of the Premier League with an eight-point gap down to Chelsea. Liverpool sit nine points adrift with a game in hand.

Our prediction: Arsenal v Man City

Arsenal could be forced to deploy a makeshift defence in response to several COVID cases and injury problems at the Emirates. They will also be without Arteta on the touchline after he tested positive.

City look irresistible right now and on paper, it's extremely difficult to predict anyone will topple them. Arsenal won't roll over, however.

Our prediction: Arsenal 1-2 Man City (8/1 at bet365)
