Martin Odegaard insists Arsenal are \u2018excited\u2019 to face Premier League title rivals Manchester City despite Tuesday night\u2019s defeat to French side RC Lens.<\/p>\n

Arsenal news, exclusives and analysis<\/p>\n

Pep Guardiola\u2019s side are top of the league after seven games but Arsenal can leapfrog them if they secure victory at the Emirates on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Arsenal are attempting to land their first top-flight title since 2004 after City narrowly beat them to last season\u2019s trophy.<\/p>\n

City defeated Arsenal in both league meetings last term but the north Londoners came out on top in August when the two sides met in the Community Shield.<\/p>\n

Speaking after Arsenal lost 2-1 to RC Lens in the Champions League on Tuesday, Gunners captain Odegaard said: \u2018It was not the best game for us.<\/p>\n

\u2018We have to keep going, learn from it and make sure we bounce back in the next game. That\u2019s all we can do now, we have to move on.\u2019<\/p>\n

Asked if the showdown against City was the perfect game for Arsenal to bounce back in, Odegaard added: \u2018Of course.<\/p>\n

\u2018It\u2019s a big game coming up. Everyone is excited for the game and it will be a good game to play.<\/p>\n

\u2018We have to look forward, make sure we are ready to be sharp on Sunday. It would be a nice boost [to go above City]. It\u2019s a massive game but it\u2019s early in the season so we are just focusing day-by-day, making sure we are improving all the time.\u2019<\/p>\n

Declan Rice, meanwhile, has warned City that Arsenal are ready to \u2018give it absolutely everything\u2019 on Sunday.<\/p>\n
