Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola insists tomorrow's clash at Arsenal won't be decisive in the title race.

Victory for City would see them usurp Arsenal as Premier League leaders.

Guardiola said: We felt it in the FA Cup. They are the best team in the league at the moment. They are committed, sharp and everything. It'll be a big, big battle. We'll have to be ready.

I don't believe that one week ago we are out of form and now we are back. Every game is different. You can play well and win, everything is perfect, tomorrow you can lose and everything is not good. Many games to play, points to play for. Tomorrow is important, everyone knows it. We have to play well.

Of course it is important because we can take the points against the best team in the league, but after it is Nottingham Forest, then the Champions League. Many things can happen. The target is to be there in the last eight to ten games. Tomorrow will help us to be there [if we win]."

On whether this is the best Arsenal team he has faced with Manchester City, Guardiola added: Since I'm here, yeah, definitely."
