Manchester United legend Gary Neville has claimed that he thinks Arsenal will win the Premier League title if they can win against Liverpool next weekend.
The north Londoners currently sit on top of the league table, eight points clear of second-placed Manchester City with just nine games to go - albeit City have ten. Mikel Arteta's side have been on top of the standings for the majority of the season but Neville has constantly predicted them to fall short in the title race, even claiming that United would finish above the Gunners as recently as last month.
However, the former Red Devils right-back has seemingly changed his tune now, admitting that a victory at Anfield next Sunday could be the deciding match in the title race. "It’s 50-50,’ Neville told Sky Sports when asked about Arsenal's chances.

"My mind was certain that Manchester City were going to win the league about six to eight weeks ago. I absolutely thought that by now Arsenal would have dropped lots of points and they would not be where they are. But now I think it’s 50-50.
"I’m not going to put everything on the Liverpool game, but our manager used to say if you won at Anfield at this time of year you would win the league. Quite often that proved to be the case. If Arsenal go to Anfield and win, I would say definitely it would be their title.
"The confidence from that would be unbelievable. Anfield is a terror of a place to go."
