Arsenal will play Manchester City at Emirates in the
32nd week of Barclays Premier League today. One of the biggest
fixture that will decide who have more chance to win the Premier league title this season.
Arsenal might have lost their hopes for the title but
they have to fight for the fourth spot as Everton are just six points away with a game in hand. Arsenal
have suffered trashing defeats against Liverpool and Chelsea in 2014 and this
also leads everyone to another big defeat today. Manchester City are eager to get the
first spot.
City must win this game in order to let their hopes
live for the title because Chelsea have all easy fixtures except the Liverpool
one which will be played on 27th April.
