Harry Redknapp has questioned if Arsenal have the 'belief' to go to take all three points from their game against Manchester City as he makes his prediction for the top-of-the-table clash. Arsenal do hold a slight advantage over their opponents as they travel to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Gunners sit at the top of the table, one point above City and above Liverpool in second place on goal difference. As we enter the end-of-season run-in, all eyes will be on the Etihad Stadium to see who comes out on top in what could be a pivotal clash in the title race.
Arsenal go into the match in brilliant form, having won their last eight league games, scoring 33 goals in the process. Despite that, Redknapp has questioned if Arsenal will have the mentality to turn overPep Guardiola’s side in their own home.
He also said that a win for City would put them in pole position to lift the title again. “What a game this is,” he told BetVictor.
“It’s usually around this point of the season that Manchester City really turn it on and go up a gear, can they do that this year? A win here, and I think they’re the team to beat once again.
«As for Arsenal, it’s all been building towards this game. The form recently has been just fantastic, so many goals, so many lads playing well. That being said, they were in a similar spot last season, and they couldn’t get the job done in the games against City. Do this side have the belief that they can go to City and get the job done?
