Emmanuel Adebayor, former Premier League striker, has predicted that Manchester City will overtake Arsenal to win the Premier League.
On 7 May 2026 GMT+7, the 2025/26 Premier League title race currently sees Arsenal leading the table with 76 points from 35 matches, while second-placed Manchester City has 71 points from 34 games.
Recently, Emmanuel Adebayor, who formerly played for Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, and Manchester City, confidently predicted that the "Citizens" would overtake the "Gunners" to claim the Premier League title.
"If you ask me today, I want Arsenal to win. They have been outstanding since the start of the season, especially their defense."
"Arsenal must win their remaining three games, while Manchester City, despite dropping points against Everton, have a strong squad and will bounce back, waiting for Arsenal to slip up so they can overtake them and win the title. But it won’t be easy for either team, and this is the first time I’m rooting for Arsenal to be champions."
