Harry Redknapp makes Premier League title prediction after Arsenal and Man City drop points and Man Utd chase leaders

MANCHESTER CITY are going to pip Premier League leaders Arsenal to the title.

That is according to Harry Redknapp, who predicts City will knock the Gunners from the top because of Pep Guardiola's "dangerous" squad depth.

The North Londoners are five points clear of second-placed City and eight points away from third-placed Manchester United, who moved closer after the other two lost at Everton and Tottenham respectively.

Redknapp has been very impressed with Mikel Arteta's "fantastic" job at the Emirates and praised his tactics in the wings and midfield.

However, the ex-Spurs boss is confident the reigning Prem champions will retain their crown, even though Arsenal have a game in hand over both the Citizens and United.

SunSport columnist Redknapp told the Mennie Talks podcast: "Arsenal are playing fantastic football. The football they’re playing and the team just looks so well balanced.

"Two great wingers in [Bukayo] Saka and [Gabriel] Martinelli, they’re strong in midfield – [Martin] Odegaard looks a real player, I love the way he plays, he’s just class. And they look solid at the back, [Aaron] Ramsdale is good.

"I don’t know though, I’ve still got a feeling Man City are going to win it, I think they’re going to come with a rally and pip Arsenal. But it will be tight.

"Arsenal are going to take some catching, but the one team you don’t want chasing you down is Man City!

"If it was anyone else chasing them I’d say, 'Yeah fine'. But Man City are so dangerous. Just look at their bench.

"[Ruben] Dias and [Phil] Foden haven’t been getting a game and they would walk into any other team in the Premier League.

"The changes Pep Guardiola can make all over the pitch is just ridiculous.

"Whereas I think if Arsenal get a couple of injuries it will be a big problem for them."
