Manchester City suffered yet another desperately difficult evening on Tuesday as they threw away a three-goal lead to draw with Feyenoord in the Champions League.
City had been cruising against their Dutch opponents thanks to Erling Haaland’s brace and Ilkay Gundogan’s deflected strike. However, a combination of mistakes and hard work from Feyenoord saw Pep Guardiola’s side concede three goals from the 74th minute onwards to draw the game.
The result leaves City’s confidence at an all-time low while Arsenal are in buoyant mood thanks to a 5-1 hammering of Sporting in Lisbon. After the weekend’s results, the Gunners sit just a point behind the current champions and nine behind leaders Liverpool.
However, a look at both Arsenal and City’s fixtures could show opportunities for the Gunners to leapfrog the Manchester club and begin to push towards Liverpool.
Arsenal’s next five fixtures
November 30 vs West Ham (A) at 5.30pm – Premier League
December 4 vs Manchester United (H) at 8.15pm – Premier League
December 8 vs Fulham (A) at 2pm – Premier League
December 11 vs AS Monaco (H) at 8pm – Champions League
December 14 vs Everton (H) at 3pm – Premier League
