City To Turn On The Style For First Trophy

Jesus is back and Man City are more than capable of showing what a fluke the Wigan result was. Arsenal will play on the front foot and that could be a disastrous approach at Wembley.

The first major domestic trophy of the season is up for grabs with both teams arriving at Wembley off the back of poor results.

Arsenal lost their second leg at home to Ostersunds in the Europa League, which shouldn’t have a meaningful impact, and Man City were knocked out of the FA Cup by Wigan, which I think will only galvanise this formidable Pep Guardiola side.

Make no mistake City are streets ahead of the Londoners and I’m backing them to win -2 goals in the handicap market at best odds of 7/2 with Paddy Power.

Arsene Wenger doesn’t have an alternative way of playing and I could see the league leaders really enjoying themselves on Sunday, against a side who tries to attack them, and making sure they get that first elusive trophy in the bag.

City won 3-1 in the league meeting this season and have scored 100+ goals in all competitions. Expect a real statement result from Pep and his boys on Sunday.
