Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool and Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City are the three teams who are aiming to win the Premier League title this season.
Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City have been the three best and most consistent teams in the Premier League this campaign, and it does look like the race for the title will go down to the final day of the season.
The Gunners are at the top of the league table right now. Arsenal have picked up 64 points from 28 matches.
Liverpool are second and level on points with Mikel Arteta’s team. City, who have won the league title for the past three seasons, are a point behind in third.
Phil Thompson was on talkSPORT on Monday morning, and the Liverpool legend thinks that Jurgen Klopp’s side will win the Premier League title this season.
The pundit, though, has added that Manchester City are the favourites and believes that their next game against Arsenal will be massive.
City will take on Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League on March 31.
Phil Thompson comments on Arsenal vs Liverpool vs Manchester City title race
Thompson said on talkSPORT (9:14 am, March 18, 2024) about the Premier League title race: “I would still think City are the favourites, Jeff, but knowing my club, yes, I am passionate, all these people who are texting in or getting in touch, yeah, it doesn’t leave you when you have been a fan of your club all your life.
“I will talk them up, and there is no dishonour in that. I would love my club to win it because when we did it last time, it was behind closed doors, and I would love it to be in front of everybody.
“We have got a great chance. You feel it. As a Liverpool fan, you feel it, that this Premier League title will come to us. We have got a great chance.”
The pundit added: “I just feel that next round of games when Arsenal and Manchester City play, I think that might have a big bearing on it.”
My View: Title race will be decided on final day
In my opinion, Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool will take the Premier League title race down to the final day of the season.
Yes, the match between City and Arsenal is big, but I do not think that any result will be decisive. After all, there will still be nine more rounds of matches left in the Premier League.
While Arsenal are winning matches after matches, Liverpool drew their last Premier League fixture (against City). City have dropped points in two of their last five league games.
So, it is not a certainty that all three clubs will continue to win matches after the next round. They will drop points.
