Casemiro backs Arsenal to win Premier League title despite Man City chase

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro predicts Arsenal will win the Premier League title this season despite Manchester City just two points behind in the table. The Brazilian told Rio Ferdinand during a recent interview: "Arsenal, I don't know if it's this season or next season, he [Arteta] will win." When pressed if Arsenal can win this season, Casemiro insisted: "Of course, it's too close, it's too close." The midfielder compared the tight race to PSG's past failures with star players: "Four years ago, they lost to us. Messi played there, Neymar, and why did they lose? Because they lost to Madrid." Arsenal currently lead the Premier League with Man City closing the gap after their 3-0 win over Crystal Palace last weekend. With just weeks remaining in the season, both teams have tough fixtures ahead.
