A spicy match here in the FA Cup, the two will look to continue as both battle for winning multiple trophies this season.

City of course last time out won 3-0 vs a Wolves side on the hands of an Erling Haaland hattrick. Arsenal, saw a win vs Manchester United as they dominated through large stretches.

It should be a great match as both look to win and advance on to the next round.
