The Liverpool vs. Arsenal matchup had generated considerable hype in terms of the setting for the championship title. Understandably, the Gunners draw with the Reds has affected the Premier League title odds. Let\u2019s take a look at the current scenarios for EPL 2022\u201323 championship betting.<\/p>\n<h2>Who Is Leading the Premier League Title Race Odds at the Moment?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arsenal.com\/news\/vault-five-classic-games-west-ham\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Arsenal<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mancity.com\/citytv\/mens\/right-foot-left-foot-header-goals-leicester-city-premier-league-63816987\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester City<\/a> are enjoying holding the top two positions for a long period of time this season, with a considerable gap from other rivals. Arsenal are now in the top place with 73 points in 30 games, followed by Manchester City with 70 points after the same number of matches.<\/p>\n<p>They have been sitting in the top two spots for quite some time on all of the betting sites in Europe. Especially Arsenal\u2019s fantastic run in the ongoing season has helped them be considered the favourites to claim the 2022\u201323 League title. However, this scenario has changed after Mikel Arteta\u2019s side drew 2-2 with Jurgen Klopp\u2019s team on Sunday, April 9.<\/p>\n<p>The betting market now supports Manchester City to win the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierleague.com\/tables\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Premier League<\/a> this season. Here are the most recent odds from <a href=\"https:\/\/m.skybet.com\/football\/premier-league\/event\/29301770\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sky Bet<\/a>.

The Gunners were in the top spot for 22 weeks from September to April and dropped to second place for only three weeks during this period.<\/p>\n<p>However, things didn\u2019t go out as planned after that, and they eventually finished the season in third place, with only four points separating the first and third positions. Arsenal could potentially face the same fate this campaign if the fortunes don&#8217;t favour them in the remaining fixtures.<\/p>\n<p>With only eight games to go, Arsenal are in danger of missing out on the chance to end their 19-year Premier League trophy drought. After showing incredible consistency from the beginning of the season, failing to win the league title will be so difficult to digest for the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/04\/06\/arsenal-looking-extend-reiss-nelson-contract\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Gunners<\/a> fans.<\/p>\n<p>Given the remaining crucial fixtures for Arsenal, it\u2019s realistic to bet on Manchester City at this point in time.
