It may only be September but Manchester City's trip to Arsenal on Sunday already feels like a significant one in terms of the title race with Liverpool already clear at the Premier League summit.

The Gunners have been tipped as the team most likely to wrestle the domestic crown away from Arne Slot's team.

And City are already making up ground and could end the weekend a staggering nine points behind the champions if they do leave the Emirates empty-handed.

Here, the Mirror Football team takes a look at the big game and predict how they think it will all pan out...

If Arsenal are serious about finally ending their Premier League title drought, they need to start regularly beating their rivals.

City are still formidable but are in the midst of a rebuild and Arsenal should be taking the game to them.

If they do, they're good enough to get the result.

Arsenal were so disappointing against Liverpool, but this is a chance to instantly make that game a distant memory.

Arteta now has no excuses.

I think City will get a point here and Arteta will be left wondering ‘what if’.

Arsenal will likely fancy their chances of getting a win over City considering Pep Guardiola's formerly formidable side are now in the midst of a rebuild and should be far more aggressive than they were at Liverpool with home advantage.

But it feels like City are almost being overlooked in the title conversation.

The latter scored against United and was one of City's most influential attacker's in the Champions League in midweek, which bodes well.

Having Foden and Haaland back on song is huge but they are up against the Premier League's best defence.
