The Gunners were held to a Champions League scoreless draw against Atalanta on Sept. 19.

Arsenal's defense has allowed just three goals in nine Premier League games this calendar year. They shut out Haaland in all three meetings last season. Overall, they are disciplined and developed to an elite level.

The last time Arsenal beat City on their own home turf was 2015. They finished two points behind City last season.
