On Sunday, Manchester City, sitting second in the Premier League rankings, will host Arsenal, the leaders, at the Etihad.
The Gunners have a six-point lead over Pep Guardiola’s side, and though City have a game in hand, a victory for the visitors would surely mean the race is all but over.
The City boss is obviously aware of that.
“If we lose, it’s over” 🗣️
