Last season, the “Citizens” claimed their fourth consecutive Premier League title, but they were unable to defend their Champions League crown. City was eliminated in the quarterfinals, losing to Real Madrid in a penalty shootout. Guardiola’s team started the new season with a victory in the Super Cup, defeating local rivals Manchester United.
In the first four rounds, Manchester City did not drop any points. In August, they defeated Chelsea and West Ham away, as well as Ipswich at home. Last weekend, after the international break, City conceded the first goal but managed to beat Brentford. In midweek, the team kicked off their Champions League campaign with a draw against Inter at the Etihad.
The “Gunners” have been in the title race until the final day for two consecutive seasons, but they have not been able to surpass Manchester City. Additionally, Arsenal returned to the Champions League, where they topped their group and advanced to the playoffs. However, in the quarterfinals, the Gunners were defeated by Bayern Munich.
Arsenal has also started the new season well, but they have already dropped their first points. This happened in a home match against Brighton, when the Gunners were reduced to 10 men. Last weekend, Arsenal won 1-0 away against Tottenham, followed by a 0-0 draw with Atalanta in the Champions League.
