David Moyes makes big Arsenal Premier League title prediction amid Mikel Arteta claim

West Ham United manager David Moyes believes Arsenal have a 'great chance' of winning the Premier League title ahead of the two sides' meeting on Sunday.

The Gunners make the short trip across the capital to the London Stadium sat six points ahead of Manchester City having played a game more. That said, with City in action less than 24 hours before Arsenal against 19th-place Leicester City, the deficit could be halved to three by the time Mikel Arteta's side kick off.

Despite many expecting Arsenal to fall off the pace, recent weeks has suggested completely otherwise with seven wins and a draw in their last eight league matches. Ahead of a very difficult run-in - which includes a trip to Man City - Sunday's trip to West Ham represents a big chance to get back to winning ways after the 2-2 draw at Liverpool last weekend.

The Hammers, meanwhile, have endured a difficult season and sit just three points above the bottom three ahead of the final few weeks of the campaign. Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Moyes spoke highly of the football Arteta has got his side playing, and believes they have every chance of lifting the trophy.

He said: "I think they've got a great chance [to win the league], which is an obvious thing to say. Will they win the league? I don't know, because they have got a huge opponent in Manchester City and you never know, but they have got themselves in a great position and to be fair, they’ve been playing some really good football throughout the season."
