Arsenal are 1/51.20 to win the Premier League title after Manchester City handed the Gunners the advantage by drawing 3-3 at Everton.

Jeremy Doku scored an added-time equaliser, as City came from 3-1 down, but it was two points dropped in the title race.

And it may prove fatal for Pep Guardiola's men.

Having been odds-on before the weekend they are 7/24.50 to take the title back to the Etihad this season.

Gunners now hot favourites to win the title

Dropped points for City make the title now Arsenal's to lose

The Gunners are five points clear of City, although the latter have a game in hand.

But after last night's drama at Hill Dickinson Stadium it is Arsenal's to lose. If the two title rivals were both to win all of their remaining games, Arteta's men would finish two points clear.

They produced a statement victory when they beat Fulham 3-0 on Saturday and fans were delighted to see Bukayo Saka fit and firing.

Next Arsenal go to West Ham on Sunday for a game the Hammers will be desperate to win after they slipped back into the relegation zone at the weekend.

After that it is Burnley at home on Monday 18 May for Arsenal before a final day trip to Crystal Palace the following Sunday.

Tonight, Arteta's focus is the Champions League when Atletico Madrid visit the Emirates Stadium for their semi-final second leg with the tie poised at 1-1.

The Gunners may yet end the season as champions of England and Europe. Or they may finish as neither.

City can't afford another slip in title race

City have four to play in the league, with Brentford at home up next. Palace then visit the Etihad in what is City's game-in-hand next Wednesday.

There's the small matter of the FA Cup final against Chelsea on 16 May for City.

After that they visit Bournemouth on Tuesday 19 May before a final game of the season at home to Aston Villa on Sunday 24 May.

It is a punishing schedule for Guardiola's players between now and the end of the season. They have already won the League Cup and, whether rumours that this will be his last campaign are true or not, Pep will want them to finish it with more silverware.

It's going to be a fascinating few weeks in the Premier League. Have we seen the final swing in the title race or is there more to come?

Whatever happens, we will have previews and best bets for all of the remaining Premier League matches.
