Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be the triumph of Manchester City. This game has a great tendency to be balanced, however, and given the timing of the two formations, we believe Manchester City have the best opportunities to score goals. On the other hand, Arsenal is going through a very irregular moment of the season, having recorded five defeats in the last ten games. Having said this and taking into account these details, we believe that betting on the victory of Guardiola's pupils is of great value.

Preview
Arsenal and Manchester City face at Wembley Stadium, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (Semi‑finals). The head‑to‑head history of the last 3 years favours the home team, since in the last 11 matches they won 5, tied 4 and lost 2. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 02‑04‑2017, and ended in a draw by (2‑2).

Analysis Arsenal

The home team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (Semi‑finals) after having eliminated: Lincoln City, Sutton United, Southampton and Preston North End. They come to this match after a away win against Middlesbrough by (1‑2). Arsenal has won 7, tied 1 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 4 wins in the last matches. They have presented defensive consistency, since they have only suffered goals in 1 of the last 4 matches, and their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 4 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Arsenal takes part in this match with a 1-2 away triumph against Middlesbrough, returning to their victories after the humiliation at Crystal Palace's ground: goals were signed by Özil and Alexis Sánchez. In the last round, Arsenal quietly won the Lincoln, team that militates in the English fifth division. In this clash against Manchester City, Coach Arsène Wenger should keep the team at 4-2-3-1 with Olivier Giroud being the most offensive reference. However, the great highlight of the team is the left wing Alexis Sánchez, player who has 19 goals and 10 assists. For this game the coach cannot count on Cazorla, Mustafi, Pérez and Ospina, players recovering from injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Petr Čech, Nacho Monreal, Rob Holding , Laurent Koscielny, Gabriel Paulista, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Aaron James Ramsey, Granit Xhaka , Mesut Özil, Olivier Giroud, Alexis Sánchez.
Coach: M. Arteta.

Analysis Man City

The away team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (Semi‑finals) after havinf played in the previous rounds against: Middlesbrough, Huddersfield Town, Crystal Palace and West Ham United. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got an away win against Southampton by (0‑3). In the last 4 FA Cup away matches Manchester City has a record of 3 wins and 1 draw.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 4 away matches. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 1 of the last 5 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

The group led by Pep Guardiola leaves motivated for this day in consequence of the victory in the field of Southampton, by 0-3, adding in this way the second triumph followed in the English league: the goals were marked by Kompany, Sané and Agüero. In this match for the FA Cup, the Spanish coach must maintain the usual tactical system, consisting of four defenses, three more positional midfielders and three more offensive players. Argentine striker Sergio Agüero is the highlight of the team with 17 goals. For this game the coach cannot count on Gundogan, injured, and still has in doubt Sagna and Stones.

Confirmed Lineup: Claudio Bravo, Jesús Navas, Gaël Clichy, Nicolás Otamendi , Fernandinho, Kevin De Bruyne, Yaya Touré, David Silva, Sergio Agüero, Leroy Sané.
Coach: Vincent Kompany, Josep Guardiola.
