Arsenal given 73 PER CENT chance of winning Premier League despite Man City loss

Arsenal given 73 PER CENT chance of winning Premier League despite Man City lossArsenal's pursuit of a first Premier League title in 22 years took a major blow on Sunday in a 2-1 defeat by Manchester City, but they are still in the driving seatCommentsSportFelix Keith Senior Sports Reporter16:36, 20 Apr 2026View 2 ImagesArsenal have lost consecutive league games(Image: Simon Stacpoole/Offside via Getty Images)Arsenal are still overwhelming favourites to win the Premier League title, despite suffering defeat at the hands of Manchester City. Stats experts Opta have revised their prediction after City's 2-1 win on Sunday - and it makes good reading for wounded Arsenal fans.‌Erling Haaland's winner at the Etihad Stadium cut the gap at the top of the table to three points, with City able to leapfrog the Gunners when they face Burnley on Wednesday. Arsenal have now lost four of their last six games in all competitions and are wobbling at a crucial point in the campaign as they search for a first Premier League title in 22 years.‌In recent weeks, Mikel Arteta has seen his side lose the Carabao Cup final to City, be knocked out of the FA Cup by Championship side Southampton and suffer back-to-back losses in the league. However, they still hold a three-point lead over City and will attempt to get back to track when they host Newcastle on Saturday.‌Arteta has called for calm after Sunday's defeat and Opta's stats echo his belief that they can still get over the line. The Gunners were given an 85.2 per cent chance of lifting the trophy before kick-off and that has only dropped to 73 per cent in defeat, with City's chances increasing from 14.8 per cent to 27 per cent.FOLLOW OUR ARSENAL FB PAGE!
