Manchester City are having a difficult season this year and are not in the title race, yet Arsenal have not taken advantage, placing second currently behind Liverpool.

The Reds last won the league title during the 2019/2020 season under Jürgen Klopp and are aiming to win it in Dutch manager Arne Slot's first year in charge.

Wenger's Premier League title advice

Wenger has issued Premier League title race advice to his former side as they trail in the race and could finish the season as runners-up for the third consecutive season.

“They [Liverpool] need to lose games, but now we are 25 games played, Liverpool have only lost one,” he told Bein Sports, as quoted by Sportskeeda.
“So they have to lose three at least in the next 13 games, so at the moment, it looks unlikely unless they collapse, but until now, they lost only one game. So they are the super favourite, and on top of that.”
“Arsenal have to make the perfect run. I pray [for Arsenal to win the Premier League title], I pray, but I have to improve the quality of my praying,” he concluded.
