Manchester City's Spanish manager Pep Guardiola reacts during the English FA Cup Quarter Final as we make our best Manchester City vs. Arsenal bet for the March 31 encounter.

Arsenal travel to face Manchester City in a pivotal EPL encounter that could have a significant bearing on the title, and we make our Man City vs. Arsenal prediction based on the best Premier League odds.

English juggernauts Arsenal and Manchester City will battle on Sunday morning in a fixture with enormous title implications. Arsenal sits atop the table with 64 points, while Manchester City is third with 63 points. Liverpool, sandwiched by the duo, is in action Sunday morning. 

The Gunners have won eight consecutive Premier League wins to open the calendar year, most of them dominant. The Etihad, Manchester City's fortress, presents their biggest challenge yet. City are unbeaten at home in their last 25 Premier League matches, including 10 wins and four draws this season.

City has just three clean sheets in their last 11 home fixtures, and Arensel has scored in six straight road games. That makes a bet on both teams to score a relatively interesting wager, but given the game's magnitude, the odds are too short to warrant a bet. That's okay, though, because we have you covered with a different prop. 

Here is our best Man City vs. Arsenal prediction and soccer picks (odds via our best soccer betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Man City vs. Arsenal prediction

Man City Over 5.5 corners ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best odds: -108 via FanDuel

As sure as the sun will rise, Manchester City will be on the front foot for a large portion of its home matches, regardless of the opponent. City, which hasn't lost in over 16 months at home in the Premier League, is an indomitable beast at the Etihad Stadium. However, Arsenal has been exceptional on its travels, taking 29 points from a possible 42, tied with City for the league's best away record. 

While City will probably prevail in nip-and-tuck affair, we've decided to make the most of the corners market. With at least six corners in 10 straight league home matches, City averages 10.2 corners per contest at the Etihad. Arsenal is an excellent defensive side, but City should have enough sustained pressure throughout the match to bust through the 5.5-corner threshold.

A winning $10 wager at FanDuel would pay out $19.26, $9.26 of which is profit. The implied probability of the -108 odds is 51.92%, while a winning $10 bet at -125, offered at DraftKings and BetMGM, would pay out $18. The implied probability of those odds is 55.56%.
