Enzo Maresca names team that will challenge Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea for Premier League title Enzo Maresca believes a fourth team will challenge Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea for the Premier League title.
Pep Guardiola’s side were attempting to win a record-extending fifth successive league title but have won less than half of their games this season to slip to seventh, 12 points behind Liverpool.
Despite the shocking run of form at the Etihad Stadium, Maresca expects Man City to challenge for the title at the business of the season and puts their current malaise down to injury issues.
Arsenal, who have come desperately close to winning the title under Mikel Arteta, are third, with Nottingham Forest occupying the final Champions League spot following a sensational first-half of the season.
Another team surpassing expectations, Bournemouth, are fifth ahead of Aston Villa – who finished in the top-four last season – and defending champions Manchester City.
