Arsenal face Tottenham Hotspur tomorrow, and will be looking to move to the top of the Premier League table before the international break.
Ex-Arsenal star Sol Campbell believes that his former club can win the Premier League title this season, as long as they manage to keep their best players fit for the majority of the campaign, as quoted by the Evening Standard.
The Gunners are in the midst of a fine run of form after going 15 games unbeaten in all competitions, and are preparing to take on another of Campbell’s former clubs Tottenham Hotspur in what could prove to be a crucial clash as far as the destination of the Premier League title is concerned.

Campbell, who made 211 appearances for Arsenal over the course of two separate spells, shared how this season could be the one where his former club end their 12-year wait without a league title, as quoted by the Evening Standard:
“It’s not mentality, it’s just injuries. That’s what has hurt them all these years — key players injured at key moments. Not just a few games, but players out for six months. If they stay fit, they can go all the way. The fans are craving it — but so are four or five other clubs.”

Arsenal are currently second in the table, level on points with league leaders Manchester City, and three points clear of north London rivals Spurs as they head into tomorrow’s crunch clash.
If Arsene Wenger’s men are to be successful this season, they must ensure they win their home games against their title rivals, starting with three points against Tottenham tomorrow.
