With Arsenal currently favorites to win the Premier League and the Gunners two points behind Manchester City, a message has been sent to Mikel Arteta’s side.<\/h2>\n

Former Tottenham star Jermaine Jenas insists Arsenal are still favorites to win the Premier League despite having their advantage reduced. The Gunners remain top of the table, but their lead has narrowed in recent weeks.<\/p>\n
Mikel Arteta’s side have won just three of their last six games, drawing at Sunderland and Chelsea and losing at Aston Villa. Meanwhile, Josep Guardiola’s City side have won their last four league games.<\/p>\n
Despite this, Jenas believes the quality within Arsenal’s ranks will finally end their 20-year wait for a domestic crown. The former England midfielder told 10bet:<\/p>\n
“I’ve been saying this since the beginning of the season. I think they’re the best team. I think they’ve shown in the last few games that without Saliba and Gabriel together they have weaknesses and they don’t have a stable base to build on. But I think they’ll both be back in the new year. Saliba came back this weekend and in any case, I don’t see a better team in the league right now.”<\/p>\n

“I think City are doing really well, but there are still some hiccups. But they’ve had some big successes recently. You know, City are going to test them, let’s put it that way. They’re going to test Arsenal to see if they learned any lessons, and I believe they have and I think they’ll cross the line this time.”<\/p>\n
If Arsenal suffer a poor performance and Guardiola’s side continue their good form, they could finish below City during the festival period. But Jenas believes the Gunners have the experience within their squad to take the pressure off.<\/p>\n
He added: “I don’t think City are going to overtake Arsenal at Christmas. The problem is that City now have the ability to continue the unbeaten run they’ve had in the past to really apply pressure. I’d be absolutely shocked if this group of players at Arsenal didn’t learn a lesson at the end of the season, just about dealing with pressure.”<\/p>\n

“They had a bit of a wobble the other day against Wolves, but they managed to get away with it. Sometimes you need a lot of luck to get things going your way. We’ve seen that over the years with City, Liverpool and the great teams that won the Premier League title.”<\/p>\n
“The only thing that bothers me a little bit about Arsenal is that they don’t seem to be dominating teams. They’re always in situations where it’s like 100, 200 and they’re always putting pressure on themselves. But even if they’re behind City on New Year’s Day, I think they’ll keep winning and win the title.”<\/p>\n
