Arsenal was lucky to get the penalty in the end of a game.. Will anyone stop Man City in Premier league? 😄
Next 2 games for Manchester United are Arsenal away and City at home - I think the next two weeks will tell us all about the title race. I think United is the only team who can challenge City, but if they fall off in the next 2 weeks the race is pretty much over.

Yeah, I totally agree with you. I also think that only Man United is capable of fighting. United must win against Arsenal and especially against City and reduce the difference of the points. Because a draw in the game would be better to Man City.
It would be unexpected if same scenario would happen again but in favour for Man United, if you remember season where Man City won in last game of premier league... at last seconds of the match maybe in 94 minute and won the league, while Mu united was thinking they won

I remember it perfectly 😁 What a comeback they made in the last game... I think City is playing too well that someone could stop them, but anyway it is football, so everything can happen.
Premier League is back to action – Leicester will host Tottenham, who have failed to win last two matches. That will be very important clash for Spurs because they lost very important points in the last games.
The two sides both come into this game off the back off 1-1 draws in round 13. Leicester might be marginally the happier of the two after drawing away to West Ham on Friday night, while Tottenham will undoubtedly have been disappointed to drop points at home to now managerless West Brom.
That was the third game in four that Tottenham have failed to win and now brings into question their title aspirations, especially as two of those four were against rivals Arsenal (2-0) and Manchester United (1-0). Spurs are now fifth in the table, 13 points behind leaders Man City.
Leicester also doesn‘t show their best football right now. They have failed to win in the last three matches – West Ham (1-1), Man City (0-2) and Stoke City (2-2).
Mauricio Pochetino and his side understand that they can‘t lose more points if they really want to challenge for the title fight. Also very interesting fact that Tottenham playing better in away games – they won four of the last six PL‘s away matches while they have reached only three victories at home.
Bet365 give a 1-75 odds that Tottenham will win this match- I‘m pretty sure that North London club has a lot of chances to do that because the situation asks for it- Also Leicester had very bad game against West Ham – they have scored one goal but the style how they played was very poor-
By the way, there‘s a lot of chances that today we‘ll see goals for both teams. Leicester have failed to score in the last five matches only against Man City. Tottenham left without goal against two great teams – Arsenal and Man Utd.
Leicester has a really good chances to score against Spurs and no doubt that Tottenham also will score at least one goal- A bit risk but 2-60 odds looks very attractive that Tottenham will win and we‘ll see at least three goals in this game-
Since 1925, these two clubs met on 80 occasions in the top flight of English football, with Spurs winning 37, Leicester winning 28 while 15 were draws. The average goals per game over that time is 3.63.
Lukaku missed such a great chance to score against Watford. The result of the match could have been 4-0 but he didn't score and after that Watford scored 2 goals in a row 2-3. However, Man United still took 3 points
Tottenham is playing not as well as they did. They lost against Man United, then won against Crystal Palace by one goal (1-0), then lost against Arsenal, ended game in a draw against West Brom and today they lost against Leicester. They wasted many points...

Still Manchester United won't reach 1 place
We will see. If the difference of points between the teams decreased, I think it would be more interesting. So the match between United and City will mean a lot.
Saturday tea time will host a huge top-four clash between historically two of the greatest teams in the English game. That will be the fight between Arsenal and Manchester United.
Both teams are in good shape – won the last three matches. Arsenal had a really difficult start of the season but results at this moment are very well. Manchester United are in the second place of the table and this game will be very important for the title fight.
These sides first met back in 1894 (3-3 draw) under the names Woolwich Arsenal and Newton Heath and have since met 225 times in all competitions. In that time, Arsenal have won 82 games to United’s 96. The largest ever win was an 8-2 win for the Red Devils in a Premier League match back in 2001.
The last two games between these sides at the Emirates have both been won by Arsenal (2-0 and 3-0)- The six-game form (all comps-) reads three wins for Arsenal, one for United and two draws, with an average of 2-83 goals a game in that time-
This game should be different – I‘m not sure that we‘ll see more than two goals. Manchester United playing different football against top of table teams – they defends more than attacking. Look at the results – the draw with Liverpool (0-0), victory against Tottenham (1-0) and defeat against Chelsea (0-1).
We couldn‘t see many goals at these type of games because Red Devils are pretty good in defense. Also Arsenal demonstrate a really good results in their defense line – they didn‘t conceded any goal in last three matches.
Bet365 give a 1-85 odds that both teams will not score more than two goals (2,5)- Yeah, both teams had a good weekend - Arsenal thumped Huddersfield in their last game 5-0, while United won 4-2 at Watford-
But as I said, that will be different game and both of them focus more on their defense line. The draw wouldn‘t be a bad result for both teams because both of them would stay in the same position.
There‘s a lot chances that we‘ll see draw again. And I‘m not sure that both of them will score at least one goal. Manchester United with their defense line playing a really good and Arsenal haven't lost any home matches yet. Bet365 give a 3.40 odds that will be a draw.
Premier League is back to action – Leicester will host Tottenham, who have failed to win last two matches. That will be very important clash for Spurs because they lost very important points in the last games.
