Former Manchester City defender Micah Richards believes the Premier League title race will be decided by how Arsenal can react to results like the Blues managed against Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Pep Guardiola's team were not at their best at Selhurst Park but managed to scrape a 1-0 victory in South London. Erling Haaland's penalty 12 minutes from time was enough to seal the three points that are crucial at this stage in the season.
City now sit two points behind the Gunners but they do have a game in hand which will be played on Sunday away at Fulham. Speaking to Sky Sports about the state of play in the race for the title, Richards explained how Mikel Arteta's team must react if they are to pip the Blues.
