'That helps, that really helps...'
Mikel Arteta is trying to win Arsenal’s first Premier League title for 20 years Mikel Arteta believes Arsenal have a big psychological advantage over title rivals Manchester City and Liverpool. As it stands, Arsenal are top of the Premier League table, level on points with Liverpool but ahead on goal difference, with City a point behind. But crucially, the Citizens have a game in hand over their rivals, making them favourites to win a record-breaking fourth consecutive title.
Arsenal and Chelsea drew 2-2 in the reverse fixture back in October Asked about the advantages of going first, the manager said in his pre-match press conference on Monday: ‘That helps, that really helps because then you are winning your matches and making the margins smaller and smaller. ‘That’s the only thing we can do at the moment because it’s not in our hands. ‘We will try again and try to play really well, try to win and if we can do that then the pressure will increase, for sure.
