vs Liverpool<\/p>\n<p>Arteta has firmly insisted that he will be watching Man City versus Liverpool following Arsenal\u2019s 2-2 draw with Sunderland.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a huge game in the Premier League title race, with one of the Gunners\u2019 key rivals guaranteed to drop during gameweek 11.<\/p>\n<p><a

title favourites<\/a>, given their seven-point lead and will be intrigued to see which team or both falter at the Etihad.<\/p>\n<p>When asked about the match between Pep Guardiola and Arne Slot\u2019s teams, Arteta told BeIN Sports: \u201cI will be watching it for sure!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Spanish manager then remained coy over what result he is hoping for between the two teams, adding: \u201cThat\u2019s (the result) not really in my control\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Arsenal Insider<\/strong> believes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arsenalinsider.com\/opinion\/this-is-the-result-arsenal-should-want-in-man-city-vs-liverpool-on-sunday\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a draw between Man City and Liverpool would be best<\/a>, as it would leave them six clear of Guardiola\u2019s side and seven ahead of the Reds.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal\u2019s draw at Sunderland was the mark of champions<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, to let slip their 2-1 lead so late on, a draw will feel a disappointment for the Gunners, but instead, they should feel buoyed by the result.<\/p>\n<p>Sunderland are flying this season and will be a tough opponent for any team in the division, especially under the lights at the Stadium of Light.<\/p>\n<p>City and Liverpool will both travel to Wearside and will do very well to come away with a similar result.<\/p>\n<p>In the first half, Regis Le Bris\u2019 team and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arsenalinsider.com\/tag\/daniel-ballard\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Daniel Ballard<\/a> proved exactly why they are in the top four, as they came flying out of the traps.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal had to show real resilience to keep up with them, and Arteta\u2019s team demonstrated their quality in the second half with an excellent attacking display.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"All eyes at Arsenal will be on Manchester City
