Let\u2019s play!<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Phil Grey writes in:<\/p>\n double quotation markI keep on hearing that every game is a final now, but surely this isn\u2019t even a quarter-final because there are 4 more games after this one.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s call it a last-32 clash.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n A reminder that Erling Haaland leads by two goals.

They\u2019re unbeaten in 11 consecutive league games, another treble in view for Pep Guardiola and co. They\u2019ve not lost to Everton since January 2017, when Ademola Lookman completed a 4-0 rout at Goodison Park<\/a> in Guardiola\u2019s first season. David Moyes\u2019 team have lost their last two, stung by injury-time winners against Liverpool and West Ham.<\/p>\n Yet Arsenal have responded to that defeat at the Etihad with back-to-back victories, forming a six-point lead, applying some serious scoreboard pressure. Even a draw feels fatal at the moment. Let\u2019s see what the Hill Dickinson has for us. Kick-off\u2019s at 8pm BST.<\/p>\n
