Manchester City will be without their key player Kevin De Bruyne for the big match against Arsenal on Sunday.
De Bruyne got injured during their 0-0 Champions League draw with Inter Milan and had to leave the game at half-time. While his injury isn’t expected to keep him out for too long, he won’t be able to play against Arsenal, which is a huge setback for City as they face a strong rival.
Arsenal is also facing a big injury problem, with their captain Martin Odegaard out due to an ankle ligament injury he suffered while playing for Norway. Odegaard is expected to miss several weeks of action, which is a major blow for Arsenal. However, they managed a 0-0 draw against Atalanta in the Europa League, thanks to David Raya’s brilliant penalty save.
Despite missing Odegaard, Arsenal will have some good news with the return of Declan Rice, who is back after serving a suspension. Rice missed Arsenal’s North London derby win over Tottenham but will be ready to face Manchester City in this crucial early-season match.
