Arsenal welcome holders Manchester City to the Emirates this evening in the FA Cup semi-finals.

Mikel Arteta's side are riding a wave of positivity after a surprise victory over champions Liverpool earlier this week.

However, the Gunners were comfortably thrashed by City shortly after the restart, and Pep Guardiola's side are in a joyous mood after successfully appealing their two-year Champions League ban.

City have scored 12 goals in their last three games and rested a number of key players in a close-fought victory against Bournemouth as the club targets another domestic cup double.

When is it and what time is kick-off?

The tie will begin at 19.45 on Saturday 18 July at the Emirates Stadium.

How can I watch it online and on TV?

The tie will be broadcast live on BT Sport 1 and on the BT Sport App, with coverage beginning at 7pm.

What is the team news?

Bernd Leno, Gabriel Martinelli, Pablo Mari and Calum Chambers are all sidelined through injury, while Eddie Nketiah is suspended. Mesut Ozil and Matteo Guendouzi have been left out once again.

Meanwhile, City remain without Sergio Aguero, but are in good shape otherwise, with Kevin De Bruyne and Aymeric Laporte both rested against Bournemouth.

Predicted line-ups

Arsenal: Martinez; Mustafi, Luiz, Tierney; Bellerin, Ceballos, Xhaka, Saka; Pepe, Lacazette, Aubameyang

Man City: Bravo; Walker, Fernandinho, Laporte, Mendy; Rodri, Gundogan, De Bruyne; Sterling, Jesus, Bernardo

Arsenal Fans Convinced Gabriel Magalhaes Transfer Is Imminent After Latest Instagram Post

Arsenal fans are convinced Gabriel Magalhaes is in north London and could sign for the club today. It is believed that the Gunners could complete a deal to sign Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes today, despite a late bid from Manchester United. That’s according to multiple reports on Saturday morning, that claim the Gunners have made an “intriguing offer” to Lille. United made a late move for the Brazilian centre-back, but Arsenal matched Napoli’s offer of €26m plus €4m add-ons, according to the reports. This means Magalhaes is now very close to joining the Gunners, and bar a late bid from United, the deal could be completed over the weekend. And now Arsenal fans are convinced Gabriel’s transfer is imminent following his latest Instagram post.

Mikel Arteta Makes Special Transfer Request As Willian Undergoes Arsenal Medical

 Mikel Arteta reportedly made a special request to the Arsenal board to sign Willian. And it seems the Gunners manager got his wish, as the Brazilian has reportedly undergone his medical in north London, after confirming on Sunday he is leaving Chelsea. Arteta is keen to strengthen his Arsenal side this summer but must do so with limited funds. The club have been linked with such stars as Philippe Coutinho, Thomas Partey and Willian in recent months, with the latter the priority. According to The Telegraph, Arteta made a special request to the Arsenal board, and asked them to 'specifically' sign Willian, despite his age.
