Arsenal are presently on top of the Premier League table with 5 points ahead of second place Manchester City.

Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton believes Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal can beat Manchester City to the Premier League title this season.

“Can Arsenal win the Premier League? Of course. Fourteen games in, they are not only top — they’re top by five points after Saturday’s win over Wolves. They’ve shown tremendous consistency and they have got 24 games to go,” Sutton told Daily Mail.

He added: “January will be interesting. Arsenal did so well in the summer, signing Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko — a business that Manchester City can only regret now. Mikel Arteta will look to strengthen in the [January] transfer window, sensing the opportunity.

“Manchester City have made mistakes and Arsenal are capitalizing. Arteta will downplay their chances. He’ll not want to pile any pressure on his players. But all of football is looking at Arsenal now as title contenders.”
