Former England striker, Gary Lineker, has predicted that Manchester City will beat Arsenal in the Premier League this weekend.
Lineker has consistently backed the Gunners to end their 22-year wait for the title.
But following a 2-1 defeat at home to Bournemouth and City’s 3-0 thrashing of Chelsea, he has changed his mind.
“I’ve been telling everyone I know that Arsenal will be fine and that they’re not going to choke,” Lineker said on The Rest Is Football podcast.
“But they’re stuttering, they’ve lost their form at the moment and we know how important momentum is.
“And all the momentum now is with Man City. It’s so tough to call now but if you said you need to put your life on the line, which I’d hate to have to do under these circumstances, I’d probably now go City because I think they will win next week.”
