Former Premier League player, Austin Jay-Jay Okocha believes Arsenal will be crowned 2022/23 Premier League champions 19 years after they last won the title.
The Gunners are currently five points clear of second-placed Manchester City with a game in hand and Okocha is confident Mikel Arteta’s men will stay ahead of their challengers till the end of the season.
‘Manchester City is surprisingly losing a lot of games this season for [their] standards,’ the former Bolton Wanderers star told wettfreunde.
‘Arsenal are consistently good, I assume the defeat at Everton was just a slip-up recently.
‘I trust Arsenal to become champions, but for that [they have] to do well in both duels against Man City.’
Both sides lost their last top-flight games with Arteta’s side beaten by Everton and City suffering defeat to Tottenham.
Arsenal and City are still due to face each other in the league twice before the season ends with the first of those two meetings coming at the Emirates on February 15.
Okocha scored 14 goals and provided 11 assists in 124 Premier League games. The former PSG star was voted Premier League player of the month in November 2003.
