Saha names Man City EPL title favourites after Arsenal loss, City win

Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha told Sky Sports that Manchester City are now the strongest team in the Premier League title race, following Arsenal's 3-0 defeat to Brighton on Saturday and City's 5-3 victory over Sunderland at the Etihad on Sunday. The win moved City three points clear of Arsenal ahead of the international break.

Saha said Arsenal had enjoyed the best momentum late last season but lost it after the heavy defeat. He added that City have understood their mistakes, possess a blend of strength and creativity in midfield, and now have the experience to lead the charge despite having young players coming through.

For Nigerian football fans, the shift raises questions about where to place support or bets as the season resumes after the break. City's attacking form and midfield balance could influence match outcomes and fantasy league picks.

If City maintain this momentum, will you back them to win the league, or do you think Arsenal can regroup and reclaim the top spot?
