Before a ball was kicked, many predicted that the hunt for top spot in the Premier League would be a two horse race. Manchester City and Liverpool have proved to be England's two elite sides over the past four seasons and many believed they would be a cut apart from the rest yet again this campaign.
However, it's Arsenal who lead the way after seven matches and they have shown their title credentials in the early exchanges of the season. The Gunners have only lost one match so far this term and they've made light work of the likes of Crystal Palace and Brentford - the type of away games that Arsenal have struggled with in the past.
It's still very early days in the season and Arsenal remain 11/1 outsiders to win the division with Sky Bet. However, former Gunners defender William Gallas believes they could hold a key advantage in the title race.
