Gary Neville STILL thinks Man City will pip Arsenal to the title despite the Gunners thrashing Leeds to keep their eight-point lead... but claims Mikel Arteta's side will win the Premier League if they beat Liverpool at Anfield

Gary Neville has again tipped Manchester City to retain their title despite Arsenal reopening their eight point lead, but the pundit has backed the Gunners to win the Premier League should they win at Anfield next weekend.

Reigning champions Man City had briefly cut Arsenal's lead to five points by beating Liverpool 4-1 in the early kick-off on Saturday.

Arsenal responded by beating Leeds United by the same scoreline to restore their eight point cushion, although City have a game in hand.

Neville told Sky Sports that Arsenal had come through another test by responding to City's early victory, but expects the pressure to ramp up on Mikel Arterta's side in their final nine matches.
