EFL Cup
Arsenal vs Manchester City
17:00 ET
 
There are already four defeats in the last five league games for Arteta's men, with only 14 points, Arsenal has four units more than the second-to-last place, relegation places. Despite this, the Gunners have performed well in cups this season. They won all six Europa League group stage matches, and in the League Cup they eliminated Leicester in the third round and Liverpool on penalties in the round of 16. Both games played away from home, so there is something to be excited about.

The duel will see the student face the teacher. Remember that a year ago Mikel Arteta fulfilled the role of assistant for Pep Guardiola, before taking command of Arsenal. Where he has won the last edition of the FA Cup against Chelsea and the Community Shield this season, against Liverpool and again on penalties. A good result could take some of the pressure off the Arsenal manager, who does not have a good time in the Premier League.

Manchester City, on the other hand, comes from eliminating Bournemouth 2-1 at home in the third round and Burnely in the round of 16 by 3-0. The current monarchs of the League Cup want to defend the title and reach the semi-finals.
