Mikel Arteta, the Arsenal manager, has made a new claim.

He claimed his brain tells him they will win the Premier League title at the end of the season.

The Gunners travel to Manchester United on Sunday while Manchester City travel to Fulham on Saturday at lunchtime.

Ahead of these fixtures, Arteta’s men are top of the table by one point to City.

The champions can regain the top spot on Saturday with a win but Arteta is remaining positive ahead of the final few games of the season.

“My brain always takes me to the players lifting the Premier League, that’s what my brain is doing at the moment,” Arteta said.

“I just follow my brain and my gut and this is how I feel, and this is the way that I want everybody to think and hopefully we can achieve it.”
