The Premier League title race is heating up as Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester City battle for supremacy. Arsenal, under the guidance of Mikel Arteta, holds a slim lead over Liverpool on goal difference and Manchester City by one point. However, former Arsenal manager Unai Emery poses a significant threat to the Gunners’ title hopes when he brings his Aston Villa side to the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
Emery’s Villa has been in impressive form this season, and they have already defeated Arsenal 1-0 at Villa Park in December. Arsenal, on the other hand, has been in red-hot form in the league, winning 10 of their past 11 games.
Meanwhile, Manchester City and Liverpool are also in contention for the title. City, the defending champions, are heavy favorites to beat Luton, while Liverpool is expected to overcome Crystal Palace. However, both teams will be keeping a close eye on the Arsenal-Villa clash.
In the battle for survival at the bottom of the table, Brentford, Everton, Nottingham Forest, Luton, Burnley, and Sheffield United are all embroiled in a desperate fight. Everton’s recent two-point deduction has plunged them deeper into the relegation mire, but defender Jarrad Branthwaite remains confident that the Toffees can avoid the drop.
