Man City move clear of Arsenal and now ODDS-ON for Premier League title after Emirates win

Now, Betfair make the Citizens odds-on at 8/15 to win this season's Premier League.

City took the lead through a sublime Kevin de Bruyne lob following a bad Takehiro Tomiyasu mistake.

Bukayo Saka equalised from the spot after a contentious penalty call by ref Anthony Taylor.

But it wouldn't matter as Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland notched to hand City a crucial three points to send them top.

Mikel Arteta's side held an eight point advantage following a hugely impressive derby win at Tottenham last month, with a late win over Manchester United following that.

But they've stuttered since, losing to City in the FA Cup and Everton in the league before a 1-1 draw with Brentford last weekend - where they had been 8/13 to win the title prior.

They drifted to 10/11 for title glory after those dropped points - the same odds as Pep's men.

But defeat to their title rivals has forced Betfair to make them 9/5 now, despite being level on points with a game in-hand.

Manchester United are still in the race, just five points behind the top two and are 20/1 to win the league.

Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom said: “Man City leapfrogged Arsenal at the top of the table on goal difference thanks to a 3-1 victory at the Emirates on Wednesday night.

"The Citizens are now the new odds-on favourites to win the Premier League title this season, while the Gunners’ odds to finish top have drifted to 9/5 following a three-game winless run.

"Man United, who are just five points behind Man City and Arsenal, are 20/1 outsiders to lift a first top-flight title since 2013.”
