The First Since 1975 (Arsenal 0-2 Manchester City BPL 2012/2013)


The defeat was Arsenal's first home defeat from Manchester City since 1975. The last Arsenal defeat at home from city happen in October 1975. At that time, Arsenal still based in Highbury and Manchester City with the manager Tony Book win with score 3-2. After that, Arsenal are unbeaten at home over Manchester City. 

It was also the first Arsenal defeat from Manchester City since based in the Emirates Stadium. From six matches at the Emirates since 2007, Arsenal won four times and drew twice. In the match yesterday, two goals from James Milner and Edin Dzeko also cut great records Arsenal over City at the Emirates. Where previously, the Citizens could never score against Arsenal in the last five games at the Emirates. 

In this game the referee issued two red cards for Koscielny (min 10) and Kompany (min 75). And for the first time in this season, Arsenal should play without Mikel Arteta because injured. Hope he will get better soon.
