Man City 'can't control' Arsenal, says Guardiola

The race for the Premier League title has been reduced to two teams following Liverpool's recent collapse, and it is Manchester City and Arsenal who are expected to fight it out to see who will lift the domestic title this season in English football's elite. 

The Sky Blues are seeking an unprecedented fourth consecutive Premier League title and have it in their hands whether or not they can lift it at the end of the season, as they are a point behind the Gunners but with a game in hand, so if the Cityzens win their remaining games they will be crowned champions. 

Pep Guardiola was asked after the Mancunian side's win over Nottingham Forest if he expects their title rivals to slip up and the Spanish coach urged his side to win what they have left as he expects Arteta and Co to do just that.

"We prefer they (Arsenal) lose, we cannot control what they do, they make a good result. Four games left, I don't think we can lose any points and we know exactly what we have to do," he told reporters.
