Nine midweek fixtures will go ahead in the Premier League, but there is one glaring omission from the matchday schedule after Arsenal vs Manchester City was postponed.
Having claimed their fourth title in five seasons, City might have anticipated long-term rivals Liverpool to present the biggest threat to their crown once again. However, while the Reds did overcome Pep Guardiola and his squad at Anfield on Sunday afternoon, there appears to be another would-be contender in town.
Arsenal - with former City coach Mikel Arteta at the helm - have picked up 27 points from a possible 30 so far this campaign and currently lead the way. City are sitting four points adrift.
