Man City told what hands them advantage over Arsenal in Premier League title race

Former Chelsea and England defender Gary Cahill believes Manchester City's squad depth will allow them to cope with the demands of the title race and beat Arsenal to top spot.

City briefly closed the gap on Arsenal to five points yesterday by beating Liverpool 4-1, although the Gunners re-established an eight-point lead a couple of hours later by beating Leeds United by the same scoreline. Pep Guardiola's side have a game in hand on their rivals but the relentless form of both means it will likely go to the wire.

The pair meet in what looks set to be a mammoth clash at the end of April, and although Arsenal have the harder league fixtures, their absence from European competition has freed up their schedule. Nevertheless, Cahill believes City have the squad to cope and a manager in Pep Guardiola with vital experience.
