Arsenal is now considered favourites by some to win the Premier League after remaining unbeaten in the new year.
Mikel Arteta’s men have been the most in-form team in the Premier League this season, which has helped them to sit top of the league table.
The likes of Liverpool and Manchester City have remained inconsistent, which has helped Arsenal to maintain its position.
The Gunners have deserved the top spot all season because of their electrifyingly good performances, which have continued into the new year.
Mikel Arteta’s men will want to stay focused one game at a time, but there is now belief among their fans that they could win the Premier League.
Stat boffins at FiveThirtyEight also believe Mikel Arteta’s side has a good chance of winning the Premier League over Manchester City.
Their predicted table reveals Arsenal has a 96 per cent chance of playing in the Champions League next season and 46 per cent of winning the league title, while City has a 45 per cent chance.
Just Arsenal Opinion
We are having a remarkable season, which is obvious to see and we do not need to think about what people say.
We just need to focus on one game at a time and win as many of them as possible.

Pep Guardiola says Arsenal could hit ONE HUNDRED POINTS.
This is a strong indication how serious Pep is taking Arsenal, surely Pep knows no one will get a hundred points in this campaign.
But it is a indication he’s a little nervous about this campaign, this talking is a mind games out of desperation.
I saw a report on TV that said only once has a team failed to win the EPL title after having gained 43 points from their first 16 games (Liverpool did it once). From teams that gained 46 points from their first 17 games, they all went on to win the title. So with 44 points from 17 games things certainly look very good. However the big elephant in the room is of course the relative thinness of the squad, and it’s not like Arsenal have a good track record with injuries.
