PREVIEW : 

The champions of England Manchester City and Arsenal face each other as winners of the Premier League and FA Cup respectively in the first ever high-profile clash of this season.


Arsenal defeated Hull City 3-2 in the finals of the FA Cup in May this year to claim a major trophy that had evaded them for 8 long years since they last won the trophy in 2005.


Manchester City, meanwhile, succeeded in winning the coveted Premier League trophy for two times in the last three years, courtesy to oil-rich owner in Sheikh Mansour.


The last time the two teams met in the League was when the Citizens beat the Gunnersblack and blue to take over the match with a 6-3 victory meaning


Arsene Wenger will be looking for blood with his new improved and a more competitive squad that has the likes of Alexis Sanchez in attack and Mathieu to Debuchy in defense among others that are most likely to start.


This means that City will not have it easy this time around as they will have to match Arsenal every move or risk losing the fixture as for them new signings such as Fernando Reges and Willy Caballero are likely to feature while former Emirates’ left-back Bacary Sagna Chelsea legend Frank Lampard and former Gooner Samir Nasri will also be on the list to feature in the game.


Also, the two teams faced each other in a Community Shield match-up back in 1934 which Arsenal won 4-0.


Possible line-ups:


Arsenal: WojciechSzczesny, Mathieu Debuchy, Calum Chambers, Laurent Koscielny, Kieran Gibbs; Mikel Arteta, Mathieu Flamini, Aaron Ramsey, Alexis Sanchez, Oxlade Chamberlain, Yaya Sanogo.


Manchester City: JoeHart, Micah Richards, Matija Nastasic, Dedryck Boyata, Aleksandr Kolarov, Jesus Navas, Fernando Reges, Yaya Toure, Samir Nasri, Edin Dzeko.
