Arsenal, playing without a striker, still managed to defeat Leicester City comfortably. Meanwhile, Liverpool earned a hard-fought win against Wolverhampton Wanderers, who have been struggling this season.
Opta’s latest simulations predict that Liverpool’s chances of winning the Premier League title have dropped slightly, from 89.5% to 85.8%. Despite the slight decrease, they remain the frontrunners.
On the other hand, Arsenal’s title chances have increased following their impressive win over Leicester. Their chances of winning the league rose from 10.9% to 14.1%, which reflects the growing confidence in the team’s performance.
Looking ahead, Arsenal’s upcoming fixtures could play a significant role in their pursuit of the title. The Gunners are set to face a series of teams that are currently struggling, including West Ham, Nottingham Forest, Manchester United, and Chelsea.
These matches are seen as an opportunity for Arsenal to continue their strong form and potentially close the gap with Liverpool, especially given the tougher matches Liverpool has ahead of them.
