Man City vs Arsenal will be the first blockbuster match of the third Premier League matchweek as the apprentice tries to outsmart the master in enemy territory.
Mikel Arteta was supposed to bring the Guardiola touch to Arsenal upon his arrival but all he has done is take the club backwards. This season they have not only missed out on European football but to make matters worse, the club have lost both their opening matches.
Manchester City are also having a few stumbles in the transfer market but their performance against Norwich has made it clear that they are once again the favourites to win the Premier League.
Arsenal are very much the underdogs in this fixture and to make matters worse, the Gunners have to play in the Carabao Cup second round vs West Brom in midweek.
