Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has named Arsenal and Chelsea amongst the teams he thinks will challenge for the Premier League title this season.
Manchester City have won four of the last five league titles, with Jurgen Klopp's Reds finishing first during the 2020/21 campaign. However, this season it is the Gunners that sit at the top of the pile after three matches, with the north Londoners the only team in the English top-flight to win all of their opening three league fixtures.
Some have predicted Tottenham Hotspur, who pipped their local rivals to fourth last term, to challenge for the title this time around, although Liverpool forward Salah failed to name the Lilywhites when discussing who he thinks will challenge the Merseyside-based club this season.

When asked by Sky Sports who his side's title rivals will be, the Egyptian international replied: “City, Chelsea and Arsenal. Those three in my opinion.”
Next up for the Gunners is newly-promoted Fulham this weekend at the Emirates Stadium, a tough task given Marco Silva's men also remain undefeated this season.
