Arsenal vs Manchester City Predictions

• Arsenal are unbeaten in 14 games, winning 11 of those.
• Manchester City are winless in their last three matches.

Citizens hit rough patch

Manchester City’s Champions League journey came to an end at the hands of Real Madrid in midweek, and Arsenal look good value to further hamper their prospects of silverware at Wembley on Sunday.

The Citizens, who have won five of the last ten EFL Cups, head to the capital winless in three matches and coming up against a Gunners outfit with ambitions of an unprecedented quadruple.

Sunday’s League Cup final marks the first major step in that quest, and Mikel Arteta’s side could not be heading into the final in better shape.

The Gunners have not won the League Cup since 1993 and have lost each of their three final appearances since then, but their win over Bayer Leverkusen in midweek extended their unbeaten streak to 14 matches and they have won 11 of these.

Manchester City have not won any of their last six meetings with Arsenal and, with confidence low after a poor run of results, backing the favourites to win appeals.

Eze could star at Wembley again

A repeat of the 2-1 defeat Pep Guardiola’s side suffered against Real Madrid could be on the cards, too. They have scored in 14 of their last 15 games, so they should be able to threaten Arsenal’s back line, but the Gunners have scored exactly twice in three of their last four.

Eberechi Eze could be the star of the show at Wembley, too. He scored Crystal Palace’s winner against Manchester City in the FA Cup final in May and has notched four goals in his last seven appearances for Arsenal.
