Former AS Monaco striker, Victor Ikpeba, has backed Arsenal to win the Premier League title ahead of Manchester City this season.
Ikpeba believes this season’s Premier League title is a two-horse race, adding that Arsenal has an edge over Man City, who currently sits in second position behind the Gunners on the log.
Speaking on the SuperSport magazine show, Monday Night Football, Ikpeba said, “Arsenal have won six consecutive league games since they lost to Manchester City. Arsenal in that run is known to win games from week to week.
“All games are difficult until the end of the season. And I have said it before, Arsenal might win the Premier League.
“Liverpool has a big say in how the title fight goes. They can play the spoilers in the game against Man City (on April 1). That game is key.”
He added, “If (Man) City can beat Liverpool in that game, then it will really go down to the wire. That’s my feeling but I don’t see that consistency in this City side. ”
“With (Erling) Haaland back in form with nine goals in three games, I think we will see the City of old. It’s going to be a two-horse race between City and Arsenal.”
