Gary Neville believes Manchester City will pip Arsenal to the Premier League title despite the Gunners leading the race at the moment.
  • Neville backs Man City to win title
  • Claims Arsenal will falter in the title race
  • Gunners currently five points clear at the top

WHAT HAPPENED? Arsenal are five points clear at the top of the table with a game in hand over Manchester City after they beat Manchester United 3-2 on Sunday. But former Red Devils defender Gary Neville is still not convinced that Mikel Arteta's side can go all the way, as he feels the Gunners will drop points and allow the Sky Blues to overtake them in the title race.

WHAT THEY SAID: "I don’t see them going on to win the League. I think Manchester City will win the League because I think what they’ve got in them is a special run. I think that at a point in the season, Arsenal will lose one or two matches and City will be right on their shoulders and it’ll become very difficult for them," Neville told Sky Sports.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: After registering a brilliant comeback win over Tottenham, City continued their fine form over the weekend as they thrashed Wolves 3-0 with Erling Haaland scoring his fourth Premier League hat-trick in just 19 appearances.
