Manchester City are the new favourites to win the Premier League title, despite being one point Arsenal and Liverpool with seven games to play.
Liverpool surrendered their advantage in the title race after failing to make their chances count in a chaotic 2-2 draw with Manchester United on Sunday.
That allowed Arsenal to keep top spot on goal difference, after they jumped to the top of the standings with an impressive 3-0 victory against Brighton a day prior.
However, Opta's supercomputer still doesn't back Mikel Arteta's squad to lift what would be Arsenal's first Premier League title in two decades.
Manchester City are instead deemed the favourites following their 4-2 victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
