Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, has claimed that the Premier League will be won between the Manchester teams and Liverpool.
Arsenal are currently on top of the log, one point ahead of Manchester City, as the league reached its mid-way point this weekend.
Ahead of the clash between the Blues and Liverpool who are in fourth, Mourinho has declared that the visitors will be in the mix, especially since they don’t play in Europe this season.
Mourinho said: “At this moment, everybody’s there. It’s Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and City in the top four.
“This year the pressure will be not just to win the title, but to get top four. I think it’ll be hard.
“If I have to say, and I know you’d like me to say, Manchester City are the big, big, big favourites.
“Liverpool are on holidays for the whole season, one week to prepare a match, play the match, one more week to prepare the next match, which is an unbelievable advantage.
“And Manchester United, in spite of being a few points behind, are the reality of the last years.
“Leave us there, behind them. We’ll try and do our job and finish top four.
“Arsenal are like us. They play in the Champions League. They are trying to improve from the last few years. For many years they’ve not been at the top of the league.
“Chelsea were 25 and 14 points off the leaders in the last two years. For us and Arsenal we have to try and do our best.”
