The Premier League title rivals meet for the first time this season in an exciting FA Cup encounter.

[Mikel Arteta](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/mikel-arteta), after all, could be portrayed as the Frankenstein’s monster of the title race, created by Guardiola, serving as his nemesis. "I had the feeling, we knew it when he was here, (about) his ability for City," said Guardiola on Thursday.

Follow Man City vs Arsenal live below, with expert analysis from Simon Collings at the ground. The two Premier League title rivals lock horns for the first time this season at the Etihad Stadium, with a place in the last-16 up for grabs as well as the chance to inflict a huge psychological blow ahead of their crucial top-flight showdown in north London on February 15. New signing Leandro Trossard makes his full debut as one of six Arsenal changes in total, with fellow new signing Jakub Kiwior on the bench. A long way to go for the centre-back on a booking against the best striker on the planet. Simon Collings at the Etihad Stadium Vieira loses a 50/50 and assistant Albert Stuivenberg yells at him to go in harder, banging his fist against the palm of his hand.

Can Mikel Arteta get one over his mentor Pep Guardiola?

Their only two wins over City in the last 16 games under Pep Guardiola have come in the FA Cup. The Gunners will be hopeful to continue their streak of four straight wins over Man City in the FA Cup, reaching the finals every single time they have beaten them. City are currently on a run of nine straight home wins in the FA Cup.

Minute-by-minute report: The Premier League's top two collide in this last-32 tie in Manchester. Join Rob Smyth.

Saka and Vieira moved the ball smoothly across the field to leave Trossard one on one with Lewis on the left side of the area. The last man Gabriel has a few yards on Haaland, who shows frightening speed to get to the ball first on the edge of the area. De Bruyne cuts inside from the right, 25 yards from goal, and shapes a delicious left-footed curler that flashes just wide of the far post. Trossard surges down the left and arrows a cross to the near post, where Nketiah gets across Akanji but volleys wide from six yards. Nothing in the transfer window so far allays my fear of relegation, Dyche is a nice guy but his hiring is a bit of a damp squib. De Bruyne plays a through pass to Haaland, who is sandwiched by Tomiyasu and Saliba in the area. He lobs it over Turner and a few yards wide of the right-hand post. Kevin De Bruyne almost scored a peach for City, but there was no rhythm in their play and Erling Haaland spent most of the half having a wrestling match with Rob Holding. He tries to hook the ball across goal from a tight angle but screws it into the side netting. He is shaping to shoot – and almost certainly score – when Laporte stretches to poke the ball behind for a corner. He had the time to take a touch there. Ake had to shoot first time, with Saliba coming to meet him, and he gently passed the ball into the far corner with his right foot.

Arsenal were knocked out of the FA Cup in the fourth round after losing to Manchester City.

Subbed off at half-time after appearing to take a knock to ribs. Will be disappointed with the goal and the way Jack Grealish picked out Ake. Made some good saves and couldn’t do much about the goal. Impressed on his full debut. Beat his full-back a number of times and went close to scoring in the first-half, but Stefan Ortega made a good save. Was having a good game at the base of the midfield, breaking up play and putting in a few crunching tackles.

Pep Guardiola calls Nathan Ake an "exceptional guy" after he sends Manchester City into the FA Cup fifth round with the winner against Arsenal.

That is how you win these games." We can take a lot of positives, I think the way we approached the game and competed. He is really good in the duels in the box, defending the far post and set-pieces is an extra bonus.

Our Emirates FA Cup campaign comes to an end as Nathan Ake grabs the only goal of the game at Etihad Stadium.

He wriggled his way into the box and drew in a couple of defenders, allowing him to nudge the ball to an unmarked Ake who slid a shot precisely into the bottom corner. Kevin de Bruyne drifted inside and bent a trademark shot fractions wide of the far post as both teams went into the break ruing missed opportunities. Ultimately we couldn’t find the goal that would have kept us in the competition.

We could have got much more from the game but an action decided a game that was really tight and competitive. After a shock exit to Southampton in the Carabao Cup, City will now be favourites to win this competition and add to their six FA Cup successes with a second under Guardiola. Their focus will now be firmly on their Premier League challenge for the coming weeks until European competition resumes, while City dream of domestic success on multiple fronts. Arsenal fans will remember a 2007/08 title challenge unravelling after a weakened team lost heavily in the cup at Manchester United. Kevin De Bruyne came closest for City before the break, bending a beauty beyond the post.
