Mikel Arteta will not be on the Arsenal bench after he returns testing positive for Covid-19.
Callum Chambers, Cedric Soares, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Ainsley Maitland-Niles all missed their Boxing Day win over Norwich due to separation.
And it remains to be seen whether Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be brought back from the cold.
For City, Rodri, John Stones and Kyle Walker all missed out on a win over Brentford and are doubting it with such a rapid turnaround.
Jack Grealish and Phil Foden both returned for that game and are expected to work again.

- Arsenal – 5/1
- Draw – 18/5
- Man City – 1/2
