Former Aston Villa captain, Gabby Agbonlahor has backed Arsenal as favourites to win the 2024/25 ahead of Manchester City.

The former England striker insisted that the Gunners are not conceding many goals.

He added that new signing Riccardo Calafiori would also boost their chances of winning the English top-flight league title.

Recall that Man City pipped Mikel Arteta’s side to win the Premier League title last season.

The new Premier League season will start in August.

“The reason why they [Arsenal] are probably favourites [to win the title] is because let’s look at last season, they only finished two points behind Manchester City,” Agbonlahor told talkSPORT.

“People forget that it was tight, it might not have seemed tight, but it was.

“They are not conceding many goals either, and with Calafiori in there as well, he is going to add more stability to that very good back four already there.”
