'I think': Rio Ferdinand shares who he reckons will win the Premier League this season, 30 games in

7 months ago 127

The Premier League title race this season has been one for the ages, with Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City battling fiercely for the trophy.

Arsenal returned to the top of the table on Wednesday night, with 68 points from 30 games following their win over Luton Town.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are second with 67 points from 29 games, while Manchester City also have 67 points but have played 30 matches.

If Man City, the reigning champions, triumph again, they would become the first club in English football history to win four titles in a row if they triumph this season.

Meanwhile, Arsenal would be winning their first title since 2004, in which Arsene Wenger’s ‘Invincibles’ went the whole season without losing a league game.

As for Liverpool, they would be winning their 20th English title if they triumph this term, which would put them on par with Manchester United.

There’s also the added incentive of the Reds wanting to give Klopp the perfect send-off by winning just their second title since 1990, both of which would have come under his watch.

Who does Rio Ferdinand think will win the Premier League title?

Rio Ferdinand is no stranger to winning the Premier League title, having done so six times while at Manchester United.

Ferdinand, speaking on TNT Sports prior to Arsenal’s meeting with Luton Town, said he’s sticking with his earlier prediction of Manchester City winning the title.

The Manchester United legend reiterated that he backed the Citizens to be victorious from the start of the season, and he remains convinced that will be the case.

“On paper I think Man City have got the easier run-in,” said Ferdinand.

“The experience is going to play a big part. I think Liverpool and those three away games at Fulham, Everton and West Ham are difficult.

“I think Arsenal have the toughest run-in. I’ve said Man City from the beginning of the season and I continue to say it now.”
