Arsenal given improbable chance to beat Man City to Premier League title after draw vs West Ham

Arsenal have been given just a 34% chance of winning their first Premier League title in 19 years after they drew 2-2 against West Ham on Sunday afternoon. The Gunners have dropped points in their last two fixtures, allowing Manchester City to move within a point of them at the top of the table.

The north London side threw away a 2-0 lead against Liverpool at Anfield as Aaron Ramsdale was called into action a number of times to see Arsenal salvage a point from the game. Just a week later, the Gunners were in the same position once again as early goals from Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard were cancelled out by Said Benrahma's penalty and Jarrod Bowen's second half strike.

If City win their current game in hand, they would move to within a point of Arsenal in the table. Due to Pep Guardiola's side still having FA Cup commitments, they will not play this weekend in the Premier League, giving the Gunners a chance to extend their lead to seven points before they face each other at the Etihad Stadium.
