Some Facts

Head-to-head

Manchester City have won both matches against Arsenal this season by the same scoreline, 1-0.

City’s 1-0 win in the Carling Cup in November ended a run of 28 matches without a victory away at Arsenal in all competitions. Their last league victory came at Highbury in the old Division One on 4 October 1975.

City have gone 26 league matches without a win at Arsenal and have scored just nine goals in those games.

The last two league meetings at the Emirates have ended 0-0.

Arsenal have failed to score in five of their last six matches against Manchester City in all competitions, including the last three at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal

Theo Walcott’s goal last week was Arsenal’s 10th league goal by an Englishman this season, equalling last season’s total. The last season in which at least 11 goals were scored by English players for Arsenal was 1997-1998 when they got 24.

Walcott has scored or assisted 15 league goals this season. Wayne Rooney is the only Englishman to have contributed more.

Robin van Persie has gone three league games without a goal for the first time this season. Manchester City are one of only three teams that he has not scored against this season in the league, along with Fulham and Wolves. If he does score he will become only the fourth player to score against 17 different teams in a Premier League season (after Andrew Cole 1993-94, Alan Shearer 1994-95 and Wright 1996-97).

Manchester City

City have failed to win any of the four games in which Mario Balotelli and Edin Dzeko have started together this season.

Roberto Mancini’s side have scored 31 of their last 36 league goals at home.

Before Christmas, David Silva scored five goals and provided eight assists for Manchester City. Since Christmas he has failed to score and provided only four assists.

    All eyes have seen,all ears have heard, all mouth will talk about the good works of arsenal, kudos to mikel arteta and wonderful skills from all arsenal players, arsene wenger should stop using ramsey in our crucial games, let chamberlain replace walcot because i enjoy his skils very well, i also hope to meet with new and experience arsenal players next season. Up arsenal for life.

    It is a very nice fact that arsenal dealt with man city over the wickend, mikel arteta did his home work very well. Pls,also i will advice the prof to keep up with thesame squard that finised man city and stop using Aaron ramsey in crucial matches, instead of playing waltcot, i prefer chamberlain. Lets keep up with this wining strength and see if we can come second, hope we can get more experience players next season. Long live emirate stadium, long live arsenal fc.
