Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has said his players are prepared to face Manchester City tomorrow for a huge chance to take the decisive lead for the title.
Arsenal will play Manchester City on Wednesday at the Etihad with just few points ahead of their closest challenger for the title this season.
The Gunners are five points clear of second-placed City but have played two games more than the reigning champions.
Anything other than a first away win against City since 2015 would leave the destiny of the title in Pep Guardiola’s side’s hands.
But Arteta, having seen Arsenal record several notable away wins this season, told a pre-match news conference on Tuesday: “It is going to be a tough night and challenge, yes, but the opportunity is incredible for us.
“We knew from the beginning — you want to win a Premier League, you have to go to Spurs and you have to beat them, you have to go to Chelsea and you have to beat them.
“This is what we have been doing, that is why we are here and now we have to go to City and we have to beat them — you want to be champion, you have to win these matches, it is as simple as that.”
