23' GOAL! MAN CITY 1-0 ARSENAL! Just when we were going to say this game is nothing to write home about, City take the lead! Aguero runs through the middle and slides in Foden who cuts inside past Bellerin and shoots. Leno spills it and Sterling is there to slot home!
21' Now it's Arsenal's turn to attack. Saka sends a high cross towards the far post and Bellerin concedes a free-kick by clambering all over Foden.
19' City venture forward in what's been a sluggish start to the game. Mahrez pops the ball inside to Cancelo but Tierney's there to get in the way.
17' City are playing a strange 3-1-4-2 formation with Cancelo in central midfield and Sterling and Aguero flanked by Foden and Mahrez. It's a typical Guardiola headscratcher.
13' Arsenal are awarded a free-kick as Mahrez holds the arm of Pepe as the Frenchman tries to counter. The visitors have looked assured in defence so far.
12' Arsenal deal with the corner well enough. It lands to Foden who clatters a shot against Pepe. City will get another corner.
10' Arsenal waste possession by punting the ball straight through to Ederson in the City goal. Silva slips a pass through to Aguero. Gabriel comes across to block the cross. City get the first corner of the game.
8' Arsenal are pressing City very high up in the pitch, making it difficult for the hosts to work their way forward. Saka nearly latches onto a throughball but slips at the vital moment, allowing Dias to recover.
7' Man City beat Arsenal's press and go on the attack. Mahrez hangs a short cross up for Aguero - who's boasting platinum blonde hair these days - who can only nod over.
5' Arsenal are seeing a lot of the ball early on, albeit mostly in their own half. Tierney sees space ahead of him down the left and bombs into it but Walker soon shuts him down.
3' It looks like Willian is leading the line for Arsenal here, playing in a false nine position to give Aubamayang and Pepe room to burst down the flanks. Let's see how that works out for the visitors.
