After Manchester City won the English Premier League title last season, it is wrong to think that they will win the Premier League title every season. However, like last season, Manchester City has a good chance of winning the Premier League title this season as well. You are considering Liverpool and Arsenal as favorites to win the Premier League title, Liverpool and Arsenal are definitely favorites to win the Premier League title but you should have added Manchester City with these two teams. Manchester City is nothing to take lightly, last season we saw Arsenal compete with Manchester City but Manchester City celebrated the Premier League title with a few games in hand. Liverpool are doing well this season on the contrary Manchester City is doing quite well then it will be a tough competition between Liverpool and Manchester City and either of these two teams will win the English Premier League title.
All three teams look very good, but after the match with Liverpool, City have a nagging problem, Ederson, according to preliminary estimates, could be out of the game for a month. Most likely, he will miss the cup match with Newcastle and will not play in the match with Arsenal, which could perhaps be a very big problem for Guardiola. So far, each team has an almost equal chance, but the next few rounds could be decisive if Arsenal manage to win, or if City beat Arsenal.
I am comfortable betting that city will beat Arsenal when the both clubs meet at Etihad by ending of this month. Ederson loss is really a big blow for Manchester City, but luckily they also have an experienced backup goal keep in Stefan Ortega. Has made some good saves in the Liverpool match when Ederson was substituted. But it would have been good if Ederson would be available for that particular encounter. There is this feeling when you have your first choice goal keeper in big games. The confidence level will be different.
