Arsenal legend Ian Wright has given the team a “slim chance” of winning the Premier League title on the final day of the season.

Arsenal need to defeat Everton at home, and hope that Manchester City drop points at home against West Ham, to be crowned champions.

The Gunners are two points behind Pep Guardiola's men and will be gutted to eventually hit 89 points and be denied a chance to win the Premier League for the first time since 2004.

Ian Wright believes Arsenal have title chance

Club legend Ian Wright believes they have a “slim, slim chance” of ending their 20-year wait for a league title.

Arsenal and Man City
Mikel Arteta has described Pep Guardiola as the best in the business.

He said on Wrighty’s House podcast: “There is a scenario where something like that could happen [Man City drop points].

“I’m trying to find a way to hang on to hope!“I’m so proud of this Arsenal team and I’m delighted they’ve taken it to the final day, these players deserve to have a slim, slim chance of something happening and that’s what they’ve got.

“You never know and this is what is so great about football. I keep thinking of different scenarios where we might be able to be champions but it’s hard to see past this light blue machine.”
