Erling Haaland is questionable for Man City’s trip to league-leading Arsenal in the Premier League.

Erling Haaland, a striker for Manchester City, is questionable for Wednesday’s Premier League encounter at Arsenal after suffering an injury during the team’s 3-1 victory over Aston Villa.

On Sunday, Haaland, who has 25 goals in the Premier League this year, was substituted with City leading 3-0 at the break.

Pep Guardiola, the manager of City, stated: “Erling has a knock; he was uncomfortable.”

“I spoke with the doctors at halftime. They said that perhaps we don’t take risks because of the score, and I agreed.

Guardiola continued, “If the score was closer, I might not do it. Although I don’t believe he is hurt, we’ll find out on Monday.

“I’m hoping he can come in on Wednesday. However, he won’t play if he’s not ready or there’s a risk.

Man City will move into the top spot if they win at the Emirates Stadium and “have their focus restored.” Despite having a game in hand, Arsenal and Brentford drew 1-1 at home on Saturday.

It was crucial to use this chance and eventually cut the deficit because the team above us missed points, according to Guardiola.

They have played one fewer game than us, so we are aware of the gap; we count that we are still six points behind; nonetheless, we will fly to London in an effort to play our game.

“I believe that we have made significant progress, especially during training sessions over the past week or so. Because everyone is so motivated, we have the opportunity to compete. Although it does not guarantee victory, winning without effort is impossible.

The “drought” in Haaland continues.
Man City’s second goal is scored by Ilkay Gundogan.
It might not be all bad news for City if Haaland is unable to play for their crucial match against Arsenal. Haaland assisted Gundogan in scoring his third Premier League goal of the season.

He has failed to score in each of his four away games in all competitions this season, and after failing to score against Villa, his mini-drought at any location has now lasted 261 minutes.

The 22-year-old did at least manage one shot on target on Sunday after failing to make any attempts at goal in the 1-0 loss at Tottenham the previous weekend, but Riyad Mahrez is to fault for denying him another, quite straightforward, scoring opportunity.

Before halftime, Rodri and Haaland both wanted to take the penalty, but Mahrez seized the opportunity after Jack Grealish was fouled in the box and scored the ensuing penalty.

Normally, Erling is the first taker, and Guardiola wanted that to happen. However, Riyad always tries to [take them], and Rodri was involved.

Since I honestly don’t know what happened, we will talk about it on Monday. I enjoy it when players attempt to take penalties, but there are always [number] ones and the star player, Erling.
