Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson believes the Premier League title race may ultimately be decided by goal difference, following Manchester City's narrow 1-0 win over Burnley. City have taken the top spot, but they are level with Arsenal on points and goal difference.
Merson thinks City needed an impressive performance at Burnley to take control of the title race. Despite their loss at the Etihad, Arsenal can regain their advantage by winning their next two games against Newcastle and Fulham. City's upcoming fixtures seem relatively easy, but Arsenal must capitalize on their opportunities to put pressure back on City. The title race is far from over, and Arsenal are still very much in contention.
