Premier League Title Race Heats Up: Young Favors City

In a surprising turn, Everton’s Ashley Young believes the Premier League title is Manchester City’s to lose.  

While Arsenal currently hold the top spot with a one-point lead (83 points to City’s 82), City has a crucial advantage: an extra game to play.

This means City could potentially overtake Arsenal this weekend if they win their match against Fulham, putting pressure on the Gunners before their own clash against Manchester United. 

Young, speaking on Monday Night Football, highlighted this advantage: “If City win their game in hand, it becomes theirs to lose. But don’t forget, both teams still have tough fixtures remaining.”
