Manchester City will have the chance to heap title pressure on Arsenal once again this weekend when they travel to bottom club Southampton on Saturday evening before the Gunners take on Liverpool at Anfield a day later.

"Manchester City were very good against Liverpool. They passed it around brilliantly, and some of the goals they scored were PlayStation goals. I think they'll have miles too much for Southampton this
