Editor’s View- End Of The Title Race?

If Arsenal lose today, it will be the end of their title race, as they will be way behind Manchester City and will not be able to recover. Pep Guardiola’s side are in no mood to lose to anyone and it seems really tough for any of the teams above the Gunners already catch hold of them, unless they really mess things up in the upcoming weeks.

It is the Citizens title to lose and if they go on a losing streak or something, though that seems highly unlikely. Let’s see what happens this weekend.
