'City aren't immune ' - Man City sent title warning despite lead over Liverpool

Chris Sutton believes the race for the Premier League title is still alive despite Manchester City leading the way by 11 points.

Defending champions City are 11 points in front of Chelsea and 12 points in front of Liverpool - having played a game more - but Sutton thinks there is still a race on.

City have now won 10 Premier League games in a row and a last minute winner at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium on Saturday was the stuff of potential champions.

The Reds and Chelsea lost further ground on City as the two sides clashed on Sunday evening, playing out to a 2-2 draw.

“Now City are pulling away at the top of the Premier League. Is it over? No, it's not,” said Chris Sutton in his Mail Online column .

“Leads have been lost before, Chelsea and Liverpool are more than capable of going on their own winning runs, and Covid is bound to have an impact somewhere along the way.

“Even City aren't immune to that threat if certain stars of theirs are forced into isolation.

“It's a good lead, but Pep Guardiola won't be cracking open the bubbly just yet. Neither should City's supporters.

“There's still a long way to go.

"It looks like it is City’s title to lose, but anything can happen in football and all three sides will know that.
