Manchester City vs Arsenal is this weekend's Sky Sports Six-a-Side game. Who will be your Elite Player?
City had won eight consecutive matches in all competitions until they visited Newcastle in midweek. They were stunned as Salomon Rondon and Matt Ritchie sealed a comeback victory. Though Liverpool were held by Leicester a day later, Pep Guardiola's side are five points behind the leaders and will see their clash with the Gunners as a must-win game.
Arsenal have registered back-to-back Premier League wins against Chelsea and Cardiff to move into the top four. Unai Emery's side were knocked out of the FA Cup in between these fixtures by Manchester United, who slipped up by drawing 2-2 with Burnley on Tuesday.
All four Elite Players have the capacity to rack up a hefty points haul from this blockbuster fixture - take a look at the contenders and select your Sky Sports Six-a-Side team.
Sergio Aguero
Aguero found the net after just 24 seconds for his 15th goal against Newcastle - more than any other player against any other team in the Premier League. Despite being out with injury for a part of this year, Aguero has still managed to score 11 Premier League goals and is only five behind Mohamed Salah.
He has 17 goal involvements in only 18 starts for Manchester City, averaging a contribution to a goal every 85.4 minutes, highlighting how he could be a valuable pick for your Elite Player choice.
Aguero is averaging 3.6 shots per game, so he has every chance of finding the net once more against a make-shift Arsenal defence who will be without Hector Bellerin, Sokratis, Rob Holding and now Laurent Koscielny.
Leroy Sane
In his last 12 Premier League appearances, Sane has had a hand in 11 goals for Manchester City, scoring five and creating six for his tea-mates. He has averaged a goal contribution every 80.4 minutes in that period, better than his average for the season, which currently stands at 81.6 minutes per goal involvement.
Linking to this, the German international has made 30 chances for his City colleagues, doing so more than any of the Elite Players, which could work to your advantage on Sunday with the Premier League champions expected to have the lion-share of possession.
In just 16.7 per cent of Sky Sports Six-a-Side line-ups, Sane's form and workload could make him an inspired addition.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Aubameyang notched against Cardiff last time out and now has 15 goals to his name this campaign. He has 25 goals in 35 Premier League games for Arsenal and has directly contributed to 19 goals, averaging a goal involvement every 100.9 minutes.
His goal haul combined with his chances creates adds up to an impressive total of 700 Six-a-Side points, contributing to 66.5 per cent of his overall figure for the season (1052.5), which in itself is more than any other Elite Player.
Aubameyang has recorded 54 points from successful aerial duels, collecting more than any other player, which collectively alongside his goal threat could reward the 27.8 per cent of Sky Sports Six-a-Side competitors with a point-pulling package to land you the jackpot.
Lucas Torreira
Torreira has made 1,066 successful passes for Arsenal this term, accumulating 533 Six-a-Side points as a result, accounting for 56 per cent of his 952 he has tallied up so far this season.
The gritty summer signing has won 52 fouls so far (104 Six-a-Side points), which is more than any other Elite Player. Torreira has made 33 tackles in his midfield role, again more than any of his competing Elite Players, proving the Uruguayan can tally up a reliable source of points.
A mere 5.3 per cent of Sky Sports Six-a-Side players have recruited the services of Torreira, who will be playing an important role in the opposing position to Fernandinho.
