Arsenal currently lie in third position on the table with 59 points,
which means they are 7 points behind current table toppers. Though
Arsenal still have a game outstanding to play, but when a team leads
the table at this time in the season with seven points then its almost
likely they stay there.
Also, liverpool are on 59 points and with a game in hand as well
which means they are also in with a chance of challenging for the
title. Manchester city, that currently lies fourth on the log have 57
points from 26 matches also has a chance in the title race.
As things stand now, it only means that no team can afford to loose
no matter the quality of the opponent the team faces. If Arsenal wins
on sunday, they get a much needed to boost to go on and also a much
needed 3 points to close the gap with the league leaders. However, a
failure to win and a win for liverpool,manchester city and chelsea
will hand a devastating blow to Arsenal title challenge because
liverpool will go ahead with 62 points which is crucial at this stage,
manchester city will also move above us with 60 points and still have
their 3 outstanding games intact. Chelsea who currently sit first will
also move ahead with 69 points widening the gap between Arsenal to 10
points. Though Arsenal will still have played a game lesser than
chelsea by that time, it will amost be insignificant because even if
we win the outstanding game they will then be leading with 7 points
and if manchester city wins all their outstanding matches also, then
things will become more difficult for Arsenal.
This above only shows the things that can happen if Arsenal fails to
win on sunday. A better outcome would be to leave white hart lane with
a point but it still presents a mountainous challenge. Arsenal can
only get as many points as possible now to keep our title winning
hopes alive.
