Little doubt about the big Premier League match of the weekend, as we look at Manchester City v Arsenal betting. Roberto Mancini’s City got their first taste of domestic defeat last Monday, when a second half come back from Chelsea at Stamford Bridge stole all three points away from the league leaders. City still hold top spot, but only by two points now over Manchester United following that defeat at the Bridge. Man City v Arsenal betting doesn’t provide an easy game to bounce back in for the league leaders, but they will be happy to be back at home and hopefully start another long unbeaten run in the league. How will City respond? They missed out on the knockout stages of the Champions League and were finally overturned in the Premier League. What kind of a response will they have now, in this massive test of character for them. Facing an Arsenal side which are in red hot form at the moment, they can be assured that the visitors will be gunning hard for them, and hoping to take any advantage of a dip in City’s confidence. This is when real Champions stand up and scrap for every point they can in the face of some adversity. Will City’s title contending character shine through?

It has been a remarkable turnaround on the season for Arsenal, who started so very poorly, that is seemed like Arsene Wenger’s job was under threat. Now, as we head to Man City v Arsenal betting, the Gunners are on an eight match unbeaten streak in the league, winning seven of those. Their revival has been sparked by the power of Robin van Persie of course, who has now scored fifteen league goals for the Gunners this season. They have needed his influence and class to pull them through to get their title charge back on track. The Gunners are up in fifth and would really set the cat amongst the pigeons if they took three points away from the Etihad Stadium in Sunday’s big Premier League clash. That win would put them within just six points of City and blow the title race wide open. The race for the top four spots in the league is already a fierce one, and Arsenal just need to keep their momentum going. The Gunners will have to be careful at the back, because they are prone to conceding, and against the attacking power that City can throw out, their improved defence must carry themselves well. The Gunners haven’t faced a really tough test for some time. How will they cope in facing perhaps a City backlash?
