Joe Cole believes Arsenal remain the favourites to win the Premier League title this season, although he admits the situation could change depending on the outcome of Manchester City’s appeal against their alleged breaches of league rules.
City are facing the possibility of a significant points deduction following allegations involving at least 114 Premier League rules. However, the club remain competitive on the pitch and have enjoyed a strong campaign under Enzo Maresca, who replaced Pep Guardiola during the summer.
Arsenal are determined to maintain their challenge for the Premier League crown, but City remain one of the sides capable of preventing them from successfully defending their title.
