Arsenal's squad has seemingly been leaked, hours before kick-off in their top of the table face-off against Manchester City.

Arsenal are set to host one of the most important Premier League games of the season so far on Sunday afternoon, as Man City will be visiting the Emirates in a clash between last season's champion and runner up.

City go into this game one point clear of the Gunners, with a win for either side taking them to the top with Spurs, who have had an unbelievable start to the season.

The chances of an Arsenal win very much hinge on the fitness of Bukayo Saka, and to a lesser extent, Gabriel Martinelli.

Both attackers seemed to be out of the City game, with Martinelli battling a hamstring injury since mid-September, and Saka being substituted after just 34 minutes in a mid-week Champions League clash against RC Lens.

However, following some squad leaks, it looks like both of Arsenal's star wingers will be available for the crucial game, with Saka and Martinelli both included in the squad.

Whether both will start or not is another question, but as their prime big game player and talisman, Arsenal fans will be hoping that their no.7 has been cleared to start.

Arsenal go into this game with an unbeaten Premier League record, something that only Tottenham can boast about, but suffered their first defeat of the season against Lens on Tuesday, a 2-1 away loss.

City have lost a game in the Premier League this season, a shock 2-1 loss last weekend to Wolves, and have also been knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Newcastle.

However, after those back-to-back defeats, the Sky Blues bounced back with a mid-week Champions League win against Leipzig.

It is too early to call the match between these sides a title decider, but it is one that has the potential to set the tone for the rest of the season, to put a team on top and establish themselves as the stronger side between the two.
