When Man City signed off on Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko's respective moves to Arsenal for a combined £75m last July, little did they know they would spend the forthcoming season battling with the Gunners for the Premier League title.
Both former City players have shone for Mikel Arteta’s side and played vital roles in their unexpected title charge. However, recent draws with Liverpool, West Ham, and Southampton have handed the initiative to their former employers.
Arsenal might still boast a five-point lead at the top of the table, but they have played two games more than Man City. Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola’s men host the Gunners on Wednesday night as Jesus and Zinchenko return to the Etihad.
