Arsene Wenger is still backing his former club Arsenal to win the Premier League title despite their recent wobble because of one key Manchester City reason. The Gunners have dropped four points in their last two games, surrendering two-goal leads in both outings, with West Ham following on from Liverpool this past weekend.
In that time, City have picked up maximum points to take themselves within four points of the Gunners, still with a game in hand. Arsenal's visit to Etihad Stadium is also fast approaching with the two title rivals set to battle on Wednesday, April 26, but before that Mikel Arteta's men can rectify their recent poor form.
On Friday evening, the Gunners welcome Southampton, who sit bottom of the Premier League table, to the Emirates Stadium. A victory would open the gap to a guaranteed seven points with Pep Guardiola's side competing in the FA Cup semi-finals this weekend.
