The Premier League title could be decided this weekend when Manchester City host Arsenal in arguably the biggest game of the season. Former colleagues Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta will go head-to-head once again on Sunday, April 19, and fans book last-minute tickets today.
A win at the Etihad will see Man City side close the gap at the top of the table to three points with a game in hand after the Gunners dropped points against Bournemouth. The Blues capitalised on the slip by dispatching Chelsea with 3-0 win at Stamford Bridge that sent a clear message to the Premier League leaders.
They will now meet for the second time in a month following Man City’s 2-0 win in the Carabao Cup final, which saw Arsenal sent home empty handed after a tepid performance at Wembley. Man City’s own allocation of tickets for the Arsenal game is already sold out, but fans still still secure their spot at the game with a limited number of VIP and hospitality packages from Seat Unique.

Prices start at £599 per person for the Manager’s Corner package, which includes premium seating in Level 2 of the Etihad’s south-west corner. It also provides access to the Manager’s Corner lounge and bar, touted as ‘a casual, social setting’ that celebrates the club’s greatest managers.
Here, there are a range of exclusive bar and premium food options such as pizzas and Mediterranean food, but note these are not included in the price of a ticket. Fans are also served complimentary tea and coffee at both half time and full time, and receive a free matchday programme.
Man City vs Arsenal VIP and hospitality tickets

Seat Unique offers hospitality packages for Manchester City's Premier League clash with Arsenal, including 'premium' seats at the Etihad and complimentary food and drink.
Prices increase to £1,379 per person for the Mancunian package, but fans choosing this option also get ‘executive’ padded seating along the half-way line of the Colin Bell Stand and a three course a-la-carte meal at no extra cost. The Mancunian lounge is designed with floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows for a stellar view of the pitch and can be enjoyed from three hours before kick-off and one hour after.
It’s said to offer a ‘warm and friendly atmosphere’, with live music performances and tea and coffee served at half-time. Guests also receive a free matchday programme and the option to purchase additional drinks.
The most premium VIP option for Man City vs Arsenal is the Tunnel Club Premier package at £2,759 per person. Said to be the ‘finest’ hospitality package at the Etihad, it includes ‘luxurious’ heated VIP seats in the lower tier directly behind the home dugout in the Colin Bell Stand.
The package also provides the rare opportunity to watch the team arrive through the Tunnel Club upper level, warm up from the side of the pitch and line up in the tunnel before kick-off. A five course meal is also included in the price of a ticket, along with a drinks package – featuring champagne fine wines from the executive Tunnel Club Sommelier – and a matchday programme.
Elsewhere, Man City provides several of its own hospitality packages, including the offsite Dakota Grill and Restaurant from £550 per person to the The Tunnel Club Premier from £1,800 per person. For those preferring to watch the game at home, Man City vs Arsenal will be airing live and exclusively on Sky Sports from a 4.30pm kick-off.
