Mikel Arteta has claimed that there are more teams than just Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United in this season's title race.

The Gunners currently hold the advantage in the battle for the Premier League crown with Arteta's men sitting two points clear of the Blues in the table.

Arsenal have a game in hand over Pep Guardiola's side after they relinquished top spot following their draw with Nottingham Forest last weekend.

United sit five points behind the North London club having also played one game more. However, the two teams will be level on matches played after this weekend's fixtures thanks to the Reds' involvement in the Carabao Cup final.
