Gary Neville \u2018fears\u2019 the title race will be decided before the final day of the season as he tipped Manchester City to be crowned Premier League champions ahead of Arsenal.<\/p>\n

Arsenal, searching for their first league title since 2004, remain one point ahead of Man City following Saturday\u2019s victory over Bournemouth, but now have just two more games remaining.<\/p>\n

City have three more fixtures to play meaning they will win the title for a record fourth successive season if they take maximum points from Fulham, Tottenham and West Ham.<\/p>\n

Fans and pundits have been dreaming of a final-day shootout for the title but Neville believes Arsenal\u2019s challenge could be ended when they travel to Old Trafford next week.<\/p>\n

Manchester United have struggled for consistency this season but are more than capable of producing surprise results, having knocked Liverpool out of the FA Cup and taken Premier League points off Jurgen Klopp\u2019s side last month.<\/p>\n

Liverpool can still mathematically win the title but will need to win their next two games and hope for an unexpected meltdown from both Man City and Arsenal to lift the Premier League in Klopp\u2019s final season at Anfield.<\/p>\n

Assessing the title race after the weekend results, Neville said on his Sky Sports podcast: \u2018A few weeks ago when I said Arsenal had to be perfect and they have just had that one slip-up against Aston Villa, there\u2019s an inevitability of City at this stage of the season, getting the job done, knowing what they need to do.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2018They have got that difficult game against Spurs on paper in 10 days but the way Spurs are at this moment in time I think it will be difficult for them against a City side playing for the title, it will be a difficult proposition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2018As I sit here this weekend, Arsenal and City played really well and did their jobs but you wonder where the title race is going to twist. Where is the twist? City don\u2019t give you twists.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2018You always said in years gone by, there will be a twist and turn, something will happen, I\u2019m not sure it is going to happen. What normally happens in these moments is if City win on the Saturday, Arsenal drop points on the Sunday and City win the title on the Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
