Former Blackburn Rovers and Norwich star, Chris Sutton, has backed Arsenal to challenge Liverpool for the Premier League title this season.
He joins a host of other pundits who believe the Gunners are the only team who can stop the Reds from winning the title.
Liverpool currently looks unstoppable as they have enjoyed a brilliant start to the season and have a nine point lead at the top of the league standings.
Arne Slot guided his side to a 2-0 defeat of defending champions Manchester City 2-0 over the weekend.
Arsenal and Chelsea are chasing them from behind second and third place, respectively, tied on 25 points.
Speaking recently on the BBC Radio Five Live Football Daily Podcast, Sutton, who played 28 times for Chelsea during his active days, opined that Arsenal are the only side capable of challenging the Reds for the title.
He is of the opinion that Chelsea do not have the required experience to challenge Slot’s side in the title race.
“Arsenal, maybe they’re a team that now Odegaard is back are capable of catching them. I think it is only Arsenal, I don’t know if Chelsea have the experience.
“They have Newcastle away this week, that’s a tricky game because Newcastle beat Arsenal very recently,” Sutton said (via TBR Football).
