Arsenal Premier League Title Chances Reassessed : The chances of Thomas Partey’s Arsenal FC of becoming English champions of the 2022/23 season has taken a new twist following the 2-2 draw against West Ham United and Manchester City’s 3-1 success against Leicester City.
This Week 31 draw at West Ham United (2-2) as The Gunners saw The Hammers come from 2-0 down to equalize all goals is undoubtedly a turning point to the end of the Premier League season.
Manchester City did not disappoint at home against Daniel Amartey’s Leicester City as the team of Pep Guardiola recorded a comfortable 3-1 success.
Arsenal still lead the league standings on 74 points after 31 games whilst City are next on 70 points in 30 matches played and it is advantage City.
The Gunners, who have dominated the Premier League since the start of the season but they are facing the danger of not annexing their first league title since the 2003/04 season.
The four-point lead is not strong enough especially considering the fact that Arsenal will go to the Etihad Stadium as part of their last seven league matches to close the season.
But how can Arsenal win the 2022/23 Premier League?
There is only one sure way.
Well as things stand now what we see is that Arsenal has their destiny in their own hands. If Thomas Partey and his team can win all their seven remaining games , they will surely be champions. This is the only definite way.
Assuming Arsenal win all 7 matches remaining , they would have gotten 95 points at the end of Week 38.
The team of Mikel Arteta have games against the likes of City, Chelsea, Newcastle and Brighton making it extremely difficult to believe that they could win everything ahead of them.
Opta Joe took a look at Arsenal’s title chances this season, and this weekend changed everything from a odds perspective.
Before Matchday 31, Arsenal had around a 47% chance of lifting the trophy by the end of the year. This Monday, the London team has only a 34.5% chance of being champions per the A.I analysis.
