Manager Mikel Arteta admitted to the fact that this clash will be a tough one but also said his team’ will be prepared’ for whatever is thrown at them as he also acknowledged his team are in a good position to secure a top four finish.
“We have put ourselves in a very good position (for top-four),” said the Spaniard. “But there is still a lot to fight for”.
“Now it’s Liverpool and we know how tough it’s going to be. And we have to prepare the game to win it.”
Both teams go into the clash on a run of good form having won their last 5 games, and with Manchester City dropping points against Crystal Palace, the Merseyside team will be all out to secure maximum points and defeat the Gunners at the Emirates.
