# Combined XI: Manchester City (H)

Arsenal will be looking to lift the mood around the club on Sunday as they welcome Manchester City to the Emirates.

The Gunners have been poor as of late and headed into the international break off the back of a hugely underwhelming 3-1 defeat away at West Brom, but City are most certainly showing impressive signs in recent times.

Pep Guardiola’s men are sat in third place but are playing some wonderful stuff, catching the eye of many. Arsenal on the other hand haven’t been quite as impressive and with Arsene Wenger’s men sat low in sixth place, they’re badly in need of some inspiration.

It’s sure to be a difficult contest for both sides on Sunday but City do head into the game as favourites, meaning that the Gunners will need to produce an excellent display to affirm their status as a top club in the league.

Here’s how we think a combined line-up would look, made up of the players available on Sunday.
