Yves Bissouma has drawn the battle lines ahead of the all-important North London Derby next Sunday by stating that he expects Manchester City to beat Arsenal to the Premier League title this season.
While Arsenal and Liverpool both sit on 74 points, one ahead of City, Pep Guardiola’s men have a game in hand over those two sides and are the favourites to win the title for the fourth year in a row.
Spurs will have a big say on where the title ends up this season as they are due to play all three clubs over the next few weeks.
Tottenham fans will love nothing more than to end the Gunners’ title hopes with a win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium next Sunday.
Bissouma expects Arsenal to lose the title race
However, the Lilywhites will perhaps be more worried about their own quest to qualify for the Champions League, with Aston Villa currently sitting in fourth place, six points clear of Spurs, who have two games in hand over the Midlands side.
Ahead of the big derby clash this weekend, Bissouma was asked where he expects the title to end up and he told Sky Sports: “City, that’s what I think. They’ve got experience, they know how in the last games. So my prediction is them.”
