City superstar warns Arsenal: We’re the favourites for Premier League title!
Manchester United, with a predicted 70 points, and Liverpool (65) look set to qualify for next season’s Champions League according to the firm’s Premier League Points market.
Sam Allardyce has solidified his newest side, as the ex-West Ham and Bolton boss usually does, but they lost their way against Watford last week.
Pires spent six years at Arsenal under Wenger, winning two Premier League titles and three FA Cup titles, and since the Frenchman left for Villarreal in 2006, the club have only won two FA Cup titles.
“The Premier League is the priority”.
It looked as though the Sky Blues would run away with the title earlier in the campaign playing some sublime football but they have have been halted in their tracks as teams in the chasing pack have closed the gap.
Chelsea fell 2-1 at Leicester City on Monday in a meeting of the biggest stories in the EPL. “I hope, and I wish, that Arsenal win the [Premier League] title”.
Who will win the Premier League game between Arsenal and Manchester City?
Arsene Wenger’s side now trail the Foxes by two points, sitting one point above City. If they do, they would likely be one of the favorites to win the league.
Graziano Pelle hasn’t been scoring and should be starting this week after beginning last weekend’s fixture on the bench.
He has only scored in three Premier League games, although managed five goals in one match against Newcastle United.
Aleksandar Mitrovic and Ayoze Perez came off the bench to devastating effect, with the Magpies coming back from a goal down at White Hart Lane. However, their aspirations in the league are still at large, with consecutive wins over Sunderland and Aston Villa since the beginning of December.
The pick of the games comes on Monday night as Arsenal take on Manchester City in a battle of epic proportions at the Emirates Stadium.
This top-of-the-table clash is wide open with both sides taking to the pitch expecting to gain three points.
Olivier Giroud has been picked out by many as the man in form for Arsenal ahead of this game but stopping Mesut Ozil and cutting off the supply line could be key to our chances of victory.
Arsenal’s home advantage makes them the favourites, priced at 11/8 (2.38) by bet365 at the time of writing while Manchester City, who could have Sergio Aguero available for Monday’s trip are on offer at 19/10 (2.90), the same firm go 12/5 (3.40) that the match ends all square.
