Rio Ferdinand expects Arsenal to lose against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United

Arsenal have seven Premier League games standing between them and a first English top-flight title since 2004, and they will be desperate to win them all and retain their current position at the top of the league table.

The North Londoners will host Aston Villa tomorrow before hosting Chelsea, Bournemouth and Everton, while they face Wolverhampton Wanderers, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United away from home in their remaining fixtures.

Arsenal are yet to lose a league game in 2024, with ten victories and a draw to their name so far, and they will fancy their chances of picking up the much-needed points in the remaining league fixtures.

However, Rio Ferdinand does not see that happening, predicting a 2-1 loss to Spurs and a 3-2 defeat to Man United for them while making his end-of-the-season predictions on TNT Sports.

Arsenal will not find it easy during the North London derby and against the Red Devils at Old Trafford, and it will be interesting to see how manager Mikel Arteta approaches both games.

They did not go all out against Manchester City last month, playing pragmatically and leaving with a point, and they could be looking to play in a similar way against Spurs and Man United.

The two teams have not been particularly firing on all cylinders this year, but they are fighting for a Champions League spot and will be desperate to get the better of Arsenal when they meet.

Apart from the bragging rights at stake, Tottenham and the Red Devils still have plenty to play for, and the Gunners have to be on top of their game in the remaining fixtures as they cannot afford to drop points going forward.
