Former Manchester United striker Robin van Persie is backing Arsenal to beat Manchester City to the Premier League title.
Ahead of the campaign resuming this weekend, Arsenal boast an eight-point advantage at the top of the table but have played a game more. The Gunners took full advantage of City being in FA Cup action just over a week ago, defeating Crystal Palace 4-1 to open up a healthy gap at the summit.
Both sides, who have each contributed to a thrilling title race thus far, will resume their respective campaigns on Saturday. City welcome Liverpool to the Etihad Stadium in the lunchtime kick-off, aiming to get revenge on Jurgen Klopp's side for their 1-0 defeat at Anfield earlier this season, while Arsenal host Leeds United at 3pm.
