Arsenal look good without being great. That might be enough in the title race but they should also get better as the season goes on

Opta's supercomputer has backed Arsenal to win the Premier League title with more than a 50% chance after Liverpool lost to Manchester United at Anfield.

A quick-fire brace from Erling Haaland sent Manchester City top of the Premier League table with a 2-0 win over Everton at the Etihad Stadium. City’s stay at the summit will depend on results elsewhere this weekend, with Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham all capable of usurping them by winning their respective matches.

Arsenal's now undisputed Leah Williamson understudy could also be England's while Everton are having a shocker at home no matter where that is.

Arsenal's dreadful Premier League season continued with a 2-1 defeat to resurgent Everton at Goodison Park leaving the Gunners five points above the relegation zone.

Erling Haaland scored his 10th and 11th goals of the young Premier League season as Manchester City blanked Everton 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.

Arsenal are title favourites because they are top of the actual table, but also because of a huge improvement in another table led by Bournemouth and Spurs. The Gunners are clear of Liverpool as the second international break of the season begins, having taken two weeks to turn a five-point gap into a one-point lead.

Manchester City's Erling Haaland kept up his torrid scoring pace with two goals in five second-half minutes on Saturday to lift City provisionally top of the table with a 2-0 Premier League victory over Everton.
