This is the game everyone’s expecting. Manchester Cityhost Arsenal as part of the fourth round in the 2022-2023 FA Cup. The match is scheduled for today, January27, 2023 at 3PM (ET). Here, you will find theprobablelineups of both teams.

Manchester Citydon’t want to give up. A few days ago, after a victory against Tottenham, Pep Guardiola questioned if his players were still hungry for titles. This is the momentto show it. Even though they’refive points behind Arsenal in the Premier League, the Citizens are very much alive in the three major competitions: Champions League, Premier and FA Cup.

Arsenal are the biggest surprise in Europe. Their start at the 2022-2023 Premier League has been amazing with 50 points after19 games. However, the FA Cup is a very different storywith the knockout stages. They have won this tournament 14 times (record) and the last one came in the 2019-2020 season.

The FA Cup has served Pep Guardiola to rotate some players in order to have rest for other competitions such as the Premier League or the Champions League. However, considering Arsenal are the rivalsinfront of the Citizens, we might see the usual lineup for Manchester City. Maybe the only certain change could be Stefan Ortega as goalkeeper for this specific tournament.

It’s a very similar scenario for Mikel Arteta. He can rotate players or go all-in to eliminate Manchester City. Though this has nothing to do with the Premier League, the emotional impact could be huge with a victory for the Gunners.
