Team news Thomas Partey (hamstring) remains absent for Arsenal with Mikel Arteta reporting no new injury concerns. Manchester City will assess Ilkay Gundogan (groin) on Saturday before deciding on his availability for the match at Arsenal the following day. Nathan Ake has stepped up his training programme but Sunday's contest comes too soon for the defender. Did you know? Arsenal have lost their last seven league matches against Manchester City. They have only ever lost more consecutively against Leeds United, with eight between 1973 and 1976. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang can be the first Arsenal player to score 2+ goals in three consecutive PL starts. This will be Pep Guardiola’s 50th PL match played on a Sunday with Man City (W32 D8 L9). The Spaniard's 65 per cent win rate in such matches is the best by a head coach on this day of the week in the competition’s history (min. 10 matches). Raheem Sterling has been directly involved in six goals in his last five PL matches against Arsenal (four goals, two assists), finding the net in each of his last three against the Gunners.

18:19 REPORT, RATINGS, HIGHLIGHTS: FERNANDES STUNNER NOT ENOUGH AS WEST BROM HOLD UTD Bruno Fernandes scored a sensational volley for Manchester United to maintain their unbeaten away record, but they could not seal all three points against West Brom in a 1-1 draw. Once again though, Man Utd had to come from behind when Mbaye Diagne nodded West Brom ahead after 83 seconds. However, having taken an impressive 21 points from losing positions coming into the game, there was hope for the visitors. Despite a sluggish first half performance, it was another moment of magic from Fernandes (44) that hauled Man Utd level as he fired home a powerful volley. Man Utd were much improved after the break, although had a penalty overturned by VAR after they judged Semi Ajayi had not made enough contact to foul Harry Maguire. West Brom could also have snatched a late winner, but Diagne missed two glorious chances, while Maguire saw an effort tipped over the bar by Sam Johnstone with the last kick of the game.18:19 REPORT, RATINGS, HIGHLIGHTS: FERNANDES STUNNER NOT ENOUGH AS WEST BROM HOLD UTD Bruno Fernandes scored a sensational volley for Manchester United to maintain their unbeaten away record, but they could not seal all three points against West Brom in a 1-1 draw.

Ings denied by Var. Would have been off by an inch or two at most. Villa hold on. Southampton's frustrations grow as they head towards a third successive defeat. Grealish finds Barkley in space with a wonderful, wonderful first-time, half-volley cross from the left edge of the box. Barkley has to stretch to get his head on it six or seven yards out but he does and it flies into the bottom corner. Magnificent goal! Southampton did not make their dominance pay. Grealish and Barkley combined to great effect.
The Citizens have now taken the spoils in their last 11 matches across all competitions - with seven of those coming in the Premier League - and they needed no second invitation to stamp their authority on a troubled West Brom side on Tuesday evening. Joao Cancelo, Riyad Mahrez, Raheem Sterling and Ilkay Gundogan (2) all struck at The Hawthorns, with the latter now boasting seven goals from his last eight Premier League outings, having recovered from an underwhelming start to the season. Guardiola's men now sit one point clear of bitter rivals Man United, who have played a game more, at the top of the rankings - no mean feat considering that Sergio Aguero has more or less been out for the season while Kevin De Bruyne is also facing a spell on sidelines. The absence of De Bruyne could certainly be felt when Man City take on the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and Arsenal next month, but for now, the visit of Sheffield United represents a prime opportunity for the league leaders to register their sixth win - and clean sheet - in succession on home soil.
