Man City face a trip to Arsenal at Emirates Stadium on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Sky Blues will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 50 and win only 14 of the 81 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in October 2005, the Gunners carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Premiership match.
