Manchester City vs Arsenal Tickets

Manchester City FC vs Arsenal FC Info

Many fixtures on the Premier League schedule have a vibe of a match that determines the champion, and Manchester City FC vs Arsenal FC matches are at the top of the list. The Citizens and the Gunners do not have an official derby, but the title contenders enter every game against each other as the three points on the line will determine the champion. 

The first dual took place in 1893, and it is not a typo. The official scoreboard read Woolwich arsenal vs Ardwick 1:0. A year later, Ardwick got rebranded as Manchester City. But the taste of defeat was not something they could change quickly. Over the next 130 years, the two clubs played each other 205 times. The Citizens were victorious on 62 occasions, lost 98 matches and booked 45 draws.

The balance of power started to switch in the Citizens' favour in the second decade of the 21 century. And this was confirmed by a blowout game in 2021, when Manchester City triumphed with 5 goals in the net of the Gunners, making for the Citizen's highest victory versus the London club.

About Manchester City vs Arsenal Football Tickets

As staple features of the Premier League in recent decades, the Citizens and Gunners have a regular annual encounter, occasionally expanded with a FA Cup match. Both clubs are contenders for the title and actively work on enlarging their trophy cabinets.

Since its founding in 1880, Manchester City had won 8 league titles and came close to the trophy in 6 other seasons when it was a runner–up. The club's honour gets validated with 6 FA Cup titles.

From a historical perspective, success comes in waves for the Citizens, with the 60s and 70s a time of triumphs, and this tempo reemerged in the 2010s and 2020s. The proof is the Premier League title in 2018 and the final appearance in the UEFA Champions League final in the 2020/21 season.

The shiny pedigree of Arsenal FC gets verified by the undisputed fact that the club has the longest streak in the top-tier flight of English football. Founded in 1886, the Gunners have collected 13 league titles and a record-setting 14 FA Cup titles. International success is lacking, with a UEFA Cup Winners' Cup win in the 1993-94 season.

The Gunner's home is Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal moved in in 2006 and has no problem filling the 60,000 seats.

Top Managers

The glory days have been a burden for management in Manchester. Feeling the pressure for success, they frequently rotated managers at the start of the 21st century. Italian Roberto Mancini and Swede Even Sven-Goran Eriksson got recruited. When they didn't produce results, another foreigner was hired in 2016, and that's when Spanish coach Pep Guardiola started shaking things up.

The situation was very stable at the Gunners from 1996 until 2018. At that time, French manager Arsene Wenger had ultimate authority and had the results to back up the privileged status. In 2019, Mikel Arteta assumed the head coach role.
