Man City could accidentally gift Arsenal unusual title race advantage amid Leicester City 'omen'

Manchester City could accidentally gift Arsenal an unusual advantage in the the Premier League title race if they defeat Leicester City at the weekend. The reigning champions are just six points behind the Gunners and they must lock horns once more before the end of the season, in what is shaping up to be a winner-takes-all fixture at Stamford Bridge on April 26.

With a game in hand, City are now back in a strong position. Pep Guardiola's side will be setting the tempo as they welcome Leicester City to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday afternoon before Arsenal travel to east London to face West Ham on Sunday.

While the Cityzens will be desperate to apply pressure on the north London outfit, a victory will send the Foxes closer to the prospect of relegation and, therefore, may push Arsenal closer to winning the league – if you're superstitious, that is.
