Arsenal take on Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the League Cup in midweek and the Gunners could very well be staring at yet another defeat.<\/p>\n

Arsenal have not picked up a win in their last seven domestic fixtures and even though Arteta would want to progress to the next round it will be near impossible for a deflated Gunners side to pick up a win against Pep Guardiola’s Man City.<\/p>\n

Apart from the poor form, Arsenal have a number of absentees meaning the manager will once again struggle to name his strongest XI in midweek.<\/p>\n

The North London side have failed to score against City in the last three meetings at the Emirates and it wouldn’t be a surprise if they cannot find the back of the next this time as well.<\/p>\n

Arsenal team news vs Manchester City:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Gabriel will return to the starting XI after his suspension and will slot into the three-man central defence alongside Holding and Kieran Tierney. David Luiz will drop to the bench.<\/p>\n

Granit Xhaka is still unavailable due to suspension meaning Dani Ceballos will keep his place in the team. The manager would want to give Elneny a much-deserved rest and this could see young Joe Willock come into the side.<\/p>\n

Summer signing Thomas Partey is still recovering from his thigh injury and will not be available.<\/p>\n

Ainsley Maitland-Niles played as the right wing-back against Everton on Saturday in the Premier League<\/a> but he will move to the bench as Hector Bellerin reprises his role.<\/p>\n

Aubameyang missed the weekend’s game due to a slight calf problem and as per the latest reports, the Gabon international will not be fit in time to take on Manchester City.<\/p>\n

The absence of Auba means Willian and Nicolas Pepe will both keep their place in the first XI with the former playing on the right flank.<\/p>\n

Nketiah started up front against the Toffees and the youngster is likely to make way for Alexandre Lacazette.<\/p>\n
