With just over six weeks of the Premier League season remaining, the divisions top four teams are separated by six points in the most open title race since the competition began in 1992. Leaders Chelsea are not contenders, according to manager Jose Mourinho. Manchester City, who no longer have to divide their attention between the Premier League and Champions League, are third, have two games in hand on the other sides in the top four and have been in excellent form, thrashing Fulham 5-0 and easing to a 3-0 win at Manchester United on Tuesday. Arsenals challenge has faltered following their 6-0 demolition by Chelsea and their 2-2 draw with Swansea on Tuesday, but they can inject new life into their bid for a first league title since 2004 when they host Manchester City on Saturday. Liverpool, who play Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday, have won their past seven league matches and, in Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge, have the divisions most prolific strikers. Here, BBC Sports experts give their verdicts on who will come out on top in the title race.
