The Premier League title race is coming to a close with Manchester City chasing Arsenal and a key game could define both of their seasons.
The Gunners are currently eight points clear of Man City, who still have a playing credit on the leader.
Arsenal hope to hold off Man City to claim their first title in 19 years . 

Mikel Arteta’s side are on course for their first title since 2004, but with 10 games left this season there is still a lot of work to do.
And they have yet to make a trip to meet the Nationals who are more than used to dealing with the pressures of a title fight. In the previous meeting in February at the Emirates, Pep Guardiola’s men had the upper hand.
Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland secured a late 3-1 victory and City are hoping to repeat that result.
