Jamie O’Hara has put his Tottenham Hotspur loyalties to one side to tip Arsenal for Premier League glory.
The Gunners could secure a five-point cushion at Christmas by winning away to Wolves this evening.
Manchester City have just lost 2-1 at home to Brentford in what is a massive missed opportunity for Pep Guardiola’s side.
There’s no doubt that Arsenal have been the Premier League’s side best side this season.
And former Tottenham midfielder O’Hara believes that his old side’s North London rivals just may go all the way.
He wrote on Twitter:
Tottenham looked to be in the title race a little earlier in the campaign, but they’re eight points adrift of Arsenal, who have also played one game less.
In a way, this piles a lot more pressure on the North Londoners tonight.
This shock Brentford victory gives the Gunners a massive chance and although it was unclear before whether they were in the title race, winning at Molineux ensures that they absolutely are.
Arsenal are already looking like the real deal, having lost only once in the Premier League this season.
Games like tonight are ones that potential champions do definitely win and it’ll be fascinating to see whether Arteta’s troops are up for the challenge.
