Manchester City can extend the gap between themselves and Arsenal to 12 points with a win at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
The Gunners visit the league leaders looking to avoid losing further ground at the top having already suffered three defeats in the top flight this term.
They will face a stern test, however, at the hands of the side Napoli boss Maurizio Sarri called the best in Europe after losing to them in the Champions League this week.

GAME PREVIEW
How can Arsenal stop the Manchester City bandwagon?
It is getting to the stage where it seems impossible to beat Pep Guardiola's team without a little bit of luck, such is the depth and variety of their attacking options.
But both West Brom and Napoli have made City work for their most recent two victories by going for goal.
The risk, of course, is that committing too many men forward sees you punished brutally by Sergio Aguero, Gabriel Jesus and the rest of Guardiola's star-studded forward line.
But while City's defence helps to support the attack with its quality in possession, it might still be a unit that can be put under pressure in its own half.
That is the challenge for every team that faces City nowadays, including Arsenal this weekend.
Arsene Wenger must find a way to give Guardiola something to think about while treading the fine line between attacking impetus and recklessness.
