Nathan Ake injury timeline revealed as Man City star major doubt for Arsenal title clash

Arsenal and Manchester City are set to do battle next week in a crucial Premier League clash that has major ramifications on this season's title race.

The north London outfit currently sit four points clear at the top of the table, although City have a game in hand on their title rivals. The Gunners welcome Southampton to the Emirates Stadium this Friday, hoping to get back to winning ways after drawing their last two games 2-2, giving up two-goal advantages in both of those outings.

After taking on the Saints, they will travel up north to the Etihad for a mouthwatering top-of-the-table clash against the Citizens, who look set to be without defender Nathan Ake for the potential title decider. Ake picked up what appeared to be a hamstring problem during Wednesday night's 1-1 draw against Bayern in the UEFA Champions League before being forced off for Aymeric Laporte in the second half.
