Arsenal set a new record for clean sheets when they put four past Bournemouth last weekend. However, as they travelled to France for their second round of Champions League group stage games, they lost their first match of the season. Even though they took the lead, Lens took advantage of their mistakes and took control of the game. Following their 2-1 defeat in midweek, the Gunners will look to get back to winning ways even though their odds against Manchester City are not that great.

Manchester City travelled to Germany for their Champions League game on the back of 2 consecutive defeats. Their first defeat came against Newcastle United in the EFL Cup third round which resulted in their elimination from the competition. They lost their first and only Premier League in the very next match against Wolverhampton last weekend. However, they turned it around during the dying moments of their Champions League game against RB Leipzig in midweek to win it by a 3-1 margin.
