The outcome of Wednesday’s game at the Etihad Stadium will play a huge role in the Gunners and Man City’s hunt for the Premier League title this campaign.
Arsenal currently lead the league table by five points with 75 points from 32 matches while City follow closely in second place with 70 points in 30 games – two games in hand.
The 2008 African Footballer of the Year is best remembered for his celebration in this exact fixture in Manchester after scoring the third goal in City’s 3-1 win, he ran to celebrate in front of Arsenal fans which provoked the visiting London fans.
He was consequently fined and handed a two-game suspension by the FA.
