Arsenal legend Ian Wright has provided his latest thoughts on the Premier League title race following the Gunners draw against Liverpool at Anfield. Mikel Arteta's men led for close to 80 minutes on Merseyside before a Roberto Firmino header salvaged a point for the hosts after Mohamed Salah's goal halved Arsenal's lead handed to them by Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus.
Manchester City's win against Southampton, with the returning Erling Haaland netting a brace, closed the gap at the top to five points. Arsenal's draw on the road the following day subsequently means six points now separate the two title rivals.
Two wins is all City are likely to now need to leapfrog Arsenal because of their marginally better goal difference. With a game in hand over Arsenal looming and a clash at Etihad Stadium to come, Pep Guardiola's men would be seen as title favourites if they could defeat the Gunners in Manchester.
