BREAKING NEWS: Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has predicted that Arsenal will not only lose their match against Manchester City today, but they will also be humiliated.

Chelsea legend Didier Drogba made a bold prediction ahead of Arsenal’s clash against Manchester City, stating, “They’re not only going to lose today, they’ll be humiliated, believe it or not.” This prediction adds further intensity to the build-up of the highly anticipated match between the two Premier League giants.

Arsenal, who have been runners-up to City in the last two seasons, are looking to shift the balance of power and make a statement by securing a win at the Etihad Stadium.

The Gunners enter this fixture with mixed recent results, having won the North London derby against Tottenham Hotspur and earned a goalless draw in their Champions League opener against Atalanta.

Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya was the standout in Italy, receiving praise for his impressive double save during the match. Now, as they prepare to face their formidable rivals, Arsenal will be keen to build on this momentum and challenge City in one of the toughest fixtures of the season.

Alan Shearer, Premier League icon, has also shared his thoughts ahead of the match, predicting a close contest. In an interview with *Betfair*, Shearer noted that a draw would be a satisfactory result for Arsenal, especially given their defensive strength.

He highlighted the Gunners’ backline as the best in the league, particularly due to the protection they receive from the midfield. Shearer pointed out that both teams had midweek Champions League commitments, and a draw would be acceptable, even with City playing at home.

Meanwhile, Raheem Sterling, who joined Arsenal on loan from Chelsea, faces stiff competition for a place in the starting lineup. Former Liverpool star Mark Lawrenson, speaking to *Paddy Power*, predicted that Sterling would mostly serve as a squad player for Arsenal, rather than a regular starter. Lawrenson believes Sterling will get limited minutes unless he can make a notable impact when called upon.

Additionally, pundit Jamie Carragher praised Arsenal’s central defensive partnership of William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães, suggesting that they could become one of the Premier League’s greatest defensive duos.

As Arsenal prepare for this crucial match, they will rely on key players like Saliba, Gabriel, and Raya to secure a positive result in their ongoing pursuit of Manchester City at the top of the table.
