Former Arsenal midfielder Ray Parlour has identified just two contenders for this season’s Premier League title.
While Liverpool clinched the title last season ahead of Arsenal, Manchester City, and Chelsea, the Reds have continued their strong form and currently lead the table after five straight wins.
Parlour believes only Arne Slot’s Liverpool and Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have what it takes to battle for the crown this time, predicting a two-horse title race.
“I would not panic yet, but the problem you have is that Liverpool have not played great this season so far, but they have won five games out of five,” Parlour told Hayters.
“I don’t think Man City can challenge for the title – I really don’t – and I don’t think Chelsea can, so I really believe it’s only Arsenal and Liverpool in the race.”
This comes after Arsenal’s Premier League 1-1 draw with Manchester City over the weekend.
