Gary Neville has admitted he is still expecting Manchester City to beat Arsenal to this season's Premier League title.
The Gunners played out a thrilling 2-2 draw with Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, going up 2-0 before Jurgen Klopp's men fought back as the spoils were eventually shared. After the match, Neville discussed his thoughts on the ongoing title battle between Mikel Arteta and his former mentor Pep Guardiola, admitting that he still thinks City will edge it over the next few weeks.
"This game was absolutely wonderful and we’ve got six more weeks left of this [title race]," the Manchester United legend said on his Sky Sports podcast. "I have thought all the way through that Man City would just edge it.

"I haven’t changed my opinion after today or even altered it slightly because I still think there will be points dropped from each side, but I think Arsenal will drop more points. Mikel Arteta will be proud of his players tonight.
"I would be proud of them. But he will also know they’ve got a hell of a period coming up.
"They go to Man City, Newcastle, West Ham, they’re all difficult games. City have got some difficult ones too and there will be a lot more moments where Arsenal feel like the whole world is watching them.
"The whole football world was watching them today and they weren’t disappointed. They made a few mistakes but all in all Arsenal fans should be pretty happy and proud with that.
"This is not a time to lose doubt, you can lose or draw here in any season. This is a terror of a game to have in a title run-in."
Arsenal currently sit six points ahead of City, although Guardiola's side have played a game less in the league this term.
