In the 30th round of the English Premier League, one of the season's key matches awaits us – Manchester City will host Arsenal at home. The match forecast for these teams has been prepared by Dailysports analysts.
Manchester City
Manchester City approaches the match against Arsenal with serious squad issues. Specifically, due to injuries sustained while on international duty with England, key defenders Kyle Walker and John Stones will not play. Additionally, primary goalkeeper Ederson has been sidelined earlier. However, Manchester City remains one of the best teams globally, trailing the leading Arsenal by just one point. In the previous round, Pep Guardiola's team drew 1-1 against Liverpool and then eliminated Newcastle from the FA Cup.
Arsenal
Arsenal played their last match on March 12 when they defeated Porto in a penalty shootout in the Champions League Round of 16. In the Premier League, the "Gunners" have been unstoppable lately. Arsenal has won 8 consecutive matches, with their latest victory being at home against Brentford (2-1). These results have propelled Mikel Arteta's team to the top of the league table, but to maintain that position, they need at least not to lose on Manchester City's turf.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history

Manchester City vs Arsenal prediction
If not for the squad issues, Manchester City would have been the favorite in this match. However, due to all of Guardiola's team's losses, I predict that both teams will score in this game.
