If Arsenal thought they had turned a corner with their 6-0 win over West Brom in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night, they may well be thinking again after facing champions Manchester City on Saturday.
The Gunners, who have lost their opening two Premier League matches to Brentford and Chelsea, have a woeful record against Pep Guardiola's City.
Pre-Pep, they were City's bogey team. When the Catalan took over in the summer in 2016 his new club were without a win in six against Arsenal. How long ago that feels now.
