Arsenal face arguably their most important game of the last few years as they take on Manchester City in a clash that has major Premier League title ramifications. The Gunners hold a five-point lead over City prior to their Etihad Stadium visit, but a defeat could be detrimental to their hopes of winning England's top flight for the first time since 2004.
Pep Guardiola's side have two games in hand over Mikel Arteta's team and a win against the current league leaders would hand City a massive title advantage. A draw would also be the better result for City as maximum points being secured in their rearranged fixtures against Brighton and West Ham would put them top.
In short, Arsenal's title destiny rests heavily on the Wednesday evening battle. However, there is another game after Arsenal take on City that could be huge in the title race, especially as Arteta watched his team get played off the park in that particular fixture last season.
