Tottenham Hotspur have really impressed the season, whilst Arsenal continue to flounder under Arsene Wenger.
Gary Neville
Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville looks set to be proven wrong by Spurs and Chelsea, after he predicted that they would both miss out in the top four before the season started.
The Blues and Tottenham currently occupy the top two spots in the Premier League, and have been by far and away the best two teams in the division this season.
Before the campaign started, however, Neville wrote a column for Sky Sports outlining his predicted top four:
“I will say Manchester United for the title with Arsenal in second, Manchester City in third and Liverpool fourth.”
Manchester United and Arsenal currently sit outside of the top four, whilst Mauricio Pochettino’s side and Antonio Conte’s men are dominating proceedings at the top of the table.
With just seven games remaining this season, the battle for fourth spot will be between Liverpool, Man City, United and the Gunners.

And whatever happens, one thing is for sure, Neville could not have been further off the mark with his top four prediction way back in August.
This weekend’s fixtures could have a huge bearing on the Premier League title race, with Chelsea travelling to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United, whilst Spurs play host to Bournemouth at White Hart Lane.
If Tottenham can close the gap on their London rivals to four or five points by the start of next week, then the title race will be very much on.
