Gary Neville Says There Is "One Team Liverpool Need To Watch" Out For As Title Race Heats Up

**Arsenal will be Liverpool’s biggest threat to winning the Premier League title, according to _Sky Sports_ pundit Gary Neville.**

The Reds are six points clear of the Gunners with a game in hand after beating Tottenham 6-3 at the weekend but, speaking after the match on his podcast, Neville said that Mikel Arteta’s team are likely to be their main rivals, [**rather than Chelsea**](https://walkon.com/blog/liverpool-news-chelsea-title-challenge-carragher/) or Manchester City:

“They’re the clear favourites for the title. Man City’s drop-off has been spectacular, I’m not sure anyone really knows how it’s gone so badly wrong. Chelsea had a tough game today but they’re doing well and having a good season.”

“I think the one team Liverpool need to watch are Arsenal if they can get their tail up and close that gap going in March and April. But at this moment in time, Liverpool are clear favourites.”

What are the bookmakers saying about Liverpool’s title prospects?

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The Reds are currently odds-on at the bookies to win their second Premier League title in 5 years, with most pricing them at around 1/2 or 4/9.

Arsenal are regarded as second favourites with betting firms putting their odds between 3/1 and 7/2. Chelsea, meanwhile, are priced at around 6/1 and 13/2.

The Merseyside club’s big lead over the Gunners could be whittled down if they don’t secure some important wins in upcoming fixtures.

Before the end of January, as well as hosting Leicester City, Manchester United and Ipswich at Anfield, they have some tricky away trips to West Ham, Nottingham Forest, Brentford and Bournemouth.

The Forest game, in particular, catches the eye, considering that Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are the only team to have beaten Liverpool in the Premier League so far this season.
