[indah rezqi]

Liverpool has been confirmed to be at the top of the Premier League standings temporarily and this will be very good for Man City and Arsenal who will fight tooth and nail to come away with 3 points. With Liverpool victory the two teams cannot share points, because if they want to catch up the only way is to win today match. For Liverpool they will still be 1 point ahead if Man City wins 3 points but if Arsenal wins 3 points then both have the same points collection. There is no other choice but to reduce the gap, because that way Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal can continue to compete until the end of the season.

What a tough game for the reds, they actually deserve the three points in this match because they played well like champions. Liverpool is now at the top of the Premier League table, with three points ahead of Arsenal and four points ahead of Manchester City respectively. Liverpool’s main aim is for Arsenal vs Manchester City match to end in a draw so that they will maintain three points clear on top of the table, while both Arsenal and Manchester City will also wants to win so as to increase their chance of winning the premier league title this season.

Liverpool deserved a win, they dominated the game, and Salah once again managed to be hero for his club. The mentality of the Liverpool squad was really very good, they didn't panic when they conceded a goal quickly in the second minute, Brighton played well at the start of the match before finally having to admit that Liverpool had better strength. Liverpool victory actually matched the predictions of most football observers, the difference in quality between the two makes us confident that Liverpool can secure full points from Brighton.

The additional 3 points made Liverpool successful in taking over the top of the standings from Arsenal, as well as putting pressure on Arsenal and Man City who are currently fighting for 3 points. As we know, if Man City versus Arsenal ends in a draw, then Liverpool will lead the standings this week. Of course, this is an extraordinary achievement, Klopp is very ambitious to leave a good impression before parting ways later. Meanwhile, let's see what the closing results of the match of week 30 are, who will be at the top of the standings.

[AprilioMP]

[...] I chose a reliable (I hope haha) solution and bet on City double chance. So far City have dominated possession but the game is relatively calm.

Man City so far has dominated possession of the ball for almost half time and the game has been relatively calm, but Arsenal have been braver in taking shots. Arsenal's Expected Goal was also better even though Man City dominated possession of the ball.

Manchester City and Arsenal's games are both high quality and quite entertaining. This is a big team match.
My safe bet is a draw. Don't dare to choose any of them.

[Inwestour]

Looking at Manchester City's formation in this match is actually quite interesting in my opinion because they emphasize the midfield to work optimally to support the attack line where Haaland is still a good choice as a finisher.
Kovavich's position is slightly elevated because for defensive midfielders it looks like Manchester City will rely more on Rodri there and I think Manchester City's midfield this time is quite complex even though for the defense where their fast defender Kyle Walker cannot play due to injury problems but it looks like Akanji is an option in this match because he is quite flexible and can be placed anywhere.

This is quite an interesting match because seeing from what is happening now this is a big match and both clubs want 3 points in this match.
Liverpool have already had the advantage where they won in this week's match and whatever results occur in this Arsenal and Manchester City match I think Liverpool will still benefit.

I expected a more interesting first half, but everything happened quite predictably, City tried to attack, and Arsenal defended. The actions of Arsenal reminded me of the match with Porto, the guests are very boring in this, Arteta chose to defend in this game, and this makes the game frankly boring, they do not allow City to create anything, and they themselves cannot do anything. I expect that Guardiola will force the game from the middle of the second half, because monotonous attacks give nothing, and it is not clear why Arteta chose such a strategy, as if a draw was enough for him in this game.

[abhiseshakana]

Liverpool came from behind to beat Brighton after they took the lead in two minutes of play. With this 2-1 win, Liverpool is at the top of the Premier League table. If the Manchester City and Arsenal match ends in a draw, Liverpool will remain at the top of the Premier League table.

Liverpool will also remain in first place if Man City wins against Arsenal because Liverpool currently has 67 points and if Man City wins their points will only be 66. The only situation that can shift Liverpool's position from first place is when Arsenal can win against Man City, but if you look at the progress of the match in the first half, Arsenal is currently under very heavy pressure from Man City. It seems like it's only a matter of time until Man City gets their first goal.

The first minute was very tight, both of them immediately launched a fast attack to steal the first goal. Very calm but with sharp ball control, in my opinion it is quite balanced for both Man City and Arsenal. The first half was very impressive and left no gaps, but after the withdrawal of Nathan Ax there was a little instability in the back line and Arsenal were slowly able to take advantage of this to try to open up several opportunities. Ended with a temporary score of 0-0 and in the second half there had to be changes because in the first half they looked equally careful. Therefore I am optimistic that there will be goals scored by both teams.

Of course, this is an extraordinary achievement, Klopp is very ambitious to leave a good impression before parting ways later. Meanwhile, let's see what the closing results of the match of week 30 are, who will be at the top of the standings.

Both Arsenal and Manchester City are under pressure, none of them wants to lose that is why the first half of the match was not interesting to watch because all the two teams were very cautious, they don’t want to make any mistake that will caused them a goal because any team that concede first might end up losing the match.

Man City dominated the first half of the match even though Arsenal were solid defensively. I don’t know why Arteta decide to use Jesus in the wing instead of Trossard, and lack of proper wings affected Arsenal’s performance in the first half, I will expect a little substitution in the Arsenal attack because I am not yet convinced with the formation.

[Frankolala]

Manchester City vs Arsenal is a strong Premier League game taking place, and it has already rolled into half-time. Although there is a strong attack between the two teams, neither side managed to score in the first half of the game due to which the game is still in the middle. And in today's game there are enough attacks between the two teams, but neither team is able to keep the ball in the goal net due to which the result is 0-0 between the two teams so far. Today's match is very important for both teams in the Premier League, if they don't get it, they will definitely lose points. And if Manchester letter don't win today's match completely, they must be below Arsenal. And if Arsenal wins today's match, then Liverpool will take the place again, so both teams will try enough to win. And I think today's match might be a draw till the last minute.

It is still a goalless draw in the first half, and none of the teams could find the back of the net. What a tough first half in which both teams don't want to make any mistakes, because they it will cost them a lot to recover back from any defeat.

Both teams played wonderfully, but their defense was very tight that penetrating it becomes a problem. The second half will tell us more if the match will end in a draw or not. However, Liverpool have taken the lead. This make draw the only option for both teams if they want to still stay on track in the title race.

Yes, the possession is 73 vs 27. Even if Manchester City has dominated the first half with more possession, Arsenal have gotten more opportunities with 4 shots on target. If not for their careless mistake they would have been leading the first half with one goal. However the first half has been very interesting to watch. I noticed there is some kind of field fright for Arsenal when they play at Etihad.

I also understand that Arsenal is still lacking a hood attacker. Gabriel Jesus has done his best but at this point Arsenal need a better striker. If you observe so well you will see that he had opportunities which he would have just release the ball once inside the net instead he choose to touch the ball more often before shooting. I hate comparing but if it was Haaland he would have not hesitate to shoot those balls. Although there are still opportunities for Arsenal to correct their mistake in the second half.

Arsenal conceded the game behind and started to defend against Manchester City. Manchester City, on the other hand, is signaling that there will be a goal in the second half of their match. Look, Arsenal can't even keep the ball at their feet. It's a big chance that they didn't concede a goal in the first half. There is Arsenal in the match trying to score a goal with a counter attack. That's why it's a match that looks boring, but we can see better things in the second half.

We are used to seeing Man City mounting pressure on their opponents and now it's as if the Gunners have borrowed a leaf from them and are taking the initiative and this is somehow making the hosts make mistakes. It was an interesting first half, Arsenal managing to keep City from netting goals and even trying to poach their box, and should have been a goal or two up if Gabriel Jesus had made good use of his chances.
 I'm expecting more from the second half, let's hope that the Gunners continue with this fire and get a goal because if they don't and the citizens do, I think it's game over for them.

[Issa56]

Man City so far has dominated possession of the ball for almost half time and the game has been relatively calm, but Arsenal have been braver in taking shots. Arsenal's Expected Goal was also better even though Man City dominated possession of the ball.

The two clubs played well in the first half of the match, Manchester City dominated the match in the first half of the match. I'm not really satisfied with Arsenal's pattern of play, it’s just like they are scared in the match, they are playing a defensive game, it’s working for them because Manchester City are finding it difficult to break, but it will be kind of difficult for Arsenal to score if they keep on using the same pattern, and errors might happen in their defense, which will lead to a goal. I never predicted a draw in the match before, but from the way the match is going, I won’t be surprised if it ends in a draw. Since we still have 45 minutes to enjoy, let’s see what happens in the second half of the match.

[Nheer]

In a tight title race, making no mistakes in the final five home games looks like a prerequisite if Liverpool are to lift the Premier League. Liverpool actually defeated Brighton to regain the top spot. Liverpool did not enter the game well and conceded in the 2nd minute. But the Anfield team completely controlled the game after that, scoring two goals thanks to Diaz and Salah to close the match. Match winning 2-1. With Man City preparing to face Arsenal, Liverpool has a great chance to maintain the top spot in the table.

the league is definitely a tight race and with Arsenal and Manchester City game on the way now it looks like Liverpool’s win today will have a good impact on their title race because both teams are trying to play it safe so they don’t end up losing the game. Liverpool already won their game against Brighton and Arsenal is playing more defensively today which is actually the best they can do to stay alive in the game, Manchester City who are at home seem more energetic today and are looking to go for a goal but Arsenal just staying back home waiting on counter attacks and with the first half score at 0-0 and also with the defensive strategy of Arsenal i think the game is likely to end as a draw, a  0-0 or a 1-1 score line is what i expect and if it happens Liverpool will be 2 points ahead of 2nd place Arsenal and 3 points ahead of 3rd place Manchester City.

I sense that Arsenal is facing greater pressure compared to Manchester City. This stems from their current position at the top of the league standings and the lingering impact of last year's encounter at this stage, which resulted in them losing their top spot. The fact that they are not playing on home turf adds to their challenges. On the other hand, Manchester City enjoys greater possession and the advantage of playing at home. They recognize that the competition involves three teams rather than just two, unlike the previous season

[Die_empty]

It is still a goalless draw in the first half, and none of the teams could find the back of the net. What a tough first half in which both teams don't want to make any mistakes, because they it will cost them a lot to recover back from any defeat.

However, Liverpool have taken the lead. This make draw the only option for both teams if they want to still stay on track in the title race.

The game produced fewer chances because both teams were very careful since they no the importance of the match. Manchester City have dominated the game but with teams have had four shots and one on target. If the game ends this way, Liverpool will be on top of the league with 67th points.

But I expect a different game in the second half after both coaches have made some tactical changes. I expect more attacking football in the second half and any team who gets a goal might end up winning the match. Any team who is willing to take more attacking risk might get a goal but this would have to be done with caution because both sides have some dangerous attackers who can capitalise on counterattacks or any defensive blunder. Mikel Arteta has been a really good student of Pep Guardiola and this match will show how much he has learned over the years.

Yes, despite City's dominance in terms of possession after the first half, we can sum it up: Ake had one chance against Jesus' two chances. But the score is still 0-0 and although I see from the live quotes that the draw quotes are growing, it seems too early to think that this is a priority option for the development of events, I don’t think that a draw will suit both teams (especially City) given that Liverpool won their game. I don’t know if City will be able to sharpen the game since Arsenal defends very confidently, but one goal is enough for the balance to be broken and if City scores first, then Arsenal will be forced to change tactics.

Man City so far has dominated possession of the ball for almost half time and the game has been relatively calm, but Arsenal have been braver in taking shots. Arsenal's Expected Goal was also better even though Man City dominated possession of the ball.

Manchester City really dominate the possession in the first but not mean that their going to dominate the match, but honestly the match have becoming tough match which nobody aspecting that they will finish the first half without any both ot the team are try enough, Arsenal making almost 2 attempt that can lead them to have 1 or 2 goals but unfortunately it couldn't happen.

Manchester City and Arsenal's games are both high quality and quite entertaining. This is a big team match.
My safe bet is a draw. Don't dare to choose any of them.

The games is quite calm and also interesting due how both of the teams are performing well, my only advice to arsenal is that they continue to play the pattern the game they been played in first half I don't think they able to dominate the match, because Manchester city is seriously mean today match against them. But nevertheless since the second half is now ongoing let wait and see if arsenal can turn the match and bring out a good outcome.

Liverpool has been confirmed to be at the top of the Premier League standings temporarily and this will be very good for Man City and Arsenal who will fight tooth and nail to come away with 3 points. With Liverpool victory the two teams cannot share points, because if they want to catch up the only way is to win today match. For Liverpool they will still be 1 point ahead if Man City wins 3 points but if Arsenal wins 3 points then both have the same points collection. There is no other choice but to reduce the gap, because that way Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal can continue to compete until the end of the season.

Liverpool came from behind to beat Brighton after they took the lead in two minutes of play. With this 2-1 win, Liverpool is at the top of the Premier League table. If the Manchester City and Arsenal match ends in a draw, Liverpool will remain at the top of the Premier League table.

Salah has been helping liverpool to win the game by scoring at the second half. The first goal was not enough for Liverpool to win the game, and glad to see that Salah opens Liverpool's chance to win the PL trophy this season. The match between City and Arsenal is still happening now. Anything can happen with this match but many people are willing to see this match to end with draw as the final result. Manchester City and Arsenal are still playing safely this time, with City owning the ball possessions, but Arsenal tried to score through its counterattack strategy. The result from city vs arsenal will be the most important result waited by all of liverpudlians.
It's caused by the draw from this match will be literally helped the club to leave its competitors behind. This is a golden momentum for liverpool to get PL trophy this season. Im still watching the game now and either of arsenal or city own the game.
They are still so harsh in scoring to get three points. Im hoping that city will win the game and it can continue its domination in PL this season.

The match is not even tough as I was thinking, both teams are playing as if they don't want to win the match.  though I also think reason why they are playing this way is because once one of them score a goal now, the other team may find it difficult to equalize. and that is why both of them are scared to do any wrong move that will make them loose this match. However, the match is also very important for both team to win from. since here we may determine who will be the champions of the competition this season. especially Arsenal they are still playing cautiously so they won't do the same as last season, I think this title is also very important for Arsenal this season.

Man City dominated the first half of the match even though Arsenal were solid defensively. I don’t know why Arteta decide to use Jesus in the wing instead of Trossard, and lack of proper wings affected Arsenal’s performance in the first half, I will expect a little substitution in the Arsenal attack because I am not yet convinced with the formation.

Yes, Arsenal performance is not that impressive in the first half of the match, because I think Jesus is not the that suppose to be there in this match he would have use Trossard instead, So that the match will move as we want. perhaps Arteta will change some things in the second half or maybe he wants to use Trossard in the second half.

The additional 3 points made Liverpool successful in taking over the top of the standings from Arsenal, as well as putting pressure on Arsenal and Man City who are currently fighting for 3 points. As we know, if Man City versus Arsenal ends in a draw, then Liverpool will lead the standings this week. Of course, this is an extraordinary achievement, Klopp is very ambitious to leave a good impression before parting ways later. Meanwhile, let's see what the closing results of the match of week 30 are, who will be at the top of the standings.

They are definitely playing under pressure, both teams are playing 50-50 in my own percentage rating. Arsenal on one side have had good chances to score, despite being an away team to a big side like the citizens. However Both teams are being extremely careful not to allow one side score because given the kind of intensity this game is, if anybody scores at these point even though it's just one goal, then the game might end up like that.

Of course I agree with you that Manchester city had more dominance than arsenal during the first half but had less Chances to score, Haaland on the other hand isn't been too impactful on the City side.  I feel he is  just there for the tap in and not to get too much in the game.

Arsenal have changed tactics in the second half, and they are attacking. They are making good chances for themselves but they have not just gotten the right one. The game is getting more tensed, and both teams are becoming aggressive.

I am not seeing what Foden and Haaland is doing, they are on close mark, but let's see if one of them will be able to manipulate his way out to find the back of the net. The first change will be made in sine couple of minutes. This match looks like they are fighting for qualification, but it is not. I admire both teams passion in this game.
