Gary Neville has new prediction for who will win the Premier League title | OneFootball

His first pick is finally out with a new top dog in play

Gary Neville has finally changed his prediction for who will win the Premier League this season, and their biggest challengers.

Neville stuck by his prediction after three months into the season despite Liverpool starting the season in blistering fashion, with City suffering a momentous downturn in form.

But, having seen Liverpool score six at Tottenham with another blistering attacking display, Neville has now dethroned the Gunners as champions-elect and handed the crown to the Reds.

"Liverpool are clearly the best team in the Premier League at this moment in time," Neville said on his Sky Sports podcast.

"They’re the clear favourites for the title. Man City’s drop-off has been spectacular, I’m not sure anyone really knows how it’s gone so badly wrong.

"Chelsea had a tough game today but they’re doing well and having a good season.

"I think the one team Liverpool need to watch are Arsenal if they can get their tail up and close that gap going in March and April.

"But at this moment in time Liverpool are clear favourites. I think the biggest risk for them is injuries – if they were to lose Van Dijk and Salah that would hurt them.

"Van Dijk is like Rodri for Liverpool, he holds it all together. Keeping him fit is absolutely crucial.

"There’s some big challenges coming up so we’re nowhere near the point that you can hand Liverpool the title but they’re in a great position and at this moment in time they’re by far the best team in the league and the table tells us that."
