com & Stream live on Peacock Manchester City vs Arsenal score: Kick off, 11:30am ET Manchester City lineup Donnarumma; Nunes, Khusanov, Guehi, O'Reilly; Rodri, Bernardo; Semenyo, Cherki, Doku, Haaland Arsenal lineup Raya; Mosquera, Saliba, Gabriel, Hincapie; Odegaard, Zubimendi, Rice; Madueke, Havertz, Eze Manchester City team news, focus Ruben Dias is out but Nico O'Reilly is fit to play which is a big boost. City have a very settled team with Abdukodir Khusanov and Marc Guehi forming a great partnership at center back. Veterans Rodri and Bernardo Silva are key in midfield with their ability to win, keep the ball and dictate the tempo of the game vital to feeding the front four.

That quartet have been sublime with Antoine Semenyo, Rayan Cherki and Jeremy Doku causing havoc and then there's Erling Haaland up top who looks hungry to deliver in the big moment and will relish the scrap with Arsenal's physical center backs. Arsenal team news, focus Bukayo Saka is out injured who is a huge blow as he's been sorely missed in recent games. Jurrien Timber, Noni Madueke and Riccardo Calafiori are injury doubts too, while Martin Odegaard and Mikel Merino are definitely out.

All of that means that Cristhian Mosquera is likely to start at right back with Piero Hincapie at left back. The trio of Declan Rice, Martin Zubimendi and Eberechi Eze will start in midfield and the latter could provide the key to getting Arsenal away on the counter and keeping hold of the ball. Leandro Trossard could start on the right if teenager Max Dowman isn't handed the spot on the right if Saka and Madueke aren't fit to go, while Viktor Gyokeres or Kai Havertz will start up top and Gabriel Martinelli will likely be on the left for his defensive abilities.
