Team news

Mikel Arteta will not be on the Arsenal bench after returning a positive test for Covid-19.

Calum Chambers, Cedric Soares, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Ainsley Maitland-Niles all missed the Boxing Day win over Norwich due to isolation.

And it remains to be seen if Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be brought back in from the cold.

For City, Rodri, John Stones and Kyle Walker all missed the win over Brentford and are doubts for this one with such a fast turnaround.

Jack Grealish and Phil Foden both returned for that game and are expected to feature again.
