Petr Cech is hoping to break the Premier League's clean sheet record against Man City
The 33-year-old, who joined the Gunners in the summer after 11 years at Chelsea, earned his 169th clean sheet during Sunday's 2-0 win over Aston Villa.
And if the Czech Republic international manages to keep a clean sheet against Manuel Pellegrini's side, he will move past David James' record.
He told Arsenal Player: "I'm not really into the records and the individual trophies but some achievements you cannot ignore and to be in a position where I can break the all-time clean sheet record is something that I never thought I would be able to do.
