Opta A.K.A Supercomputer, the renowned sports data provider, has cast Manchester City as overwhelming favourites to clinch the Premier League title for another season.

This assertion follows Manchester City's convincing 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on Sunday, further solidifying their position at the top of the league table.

The triumph came hot on the heels of Arsenal's narrow 3-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur in the highly anticipated North London Derby.

Meanwhile, Liverpool faced a setback as they were held to a 2-2 draw by West Ham on Saturday, dampening their aspirations for league glory.

In the aftermath of these crucial fixtures, Opta's title predictor now heavily favours Manchester City, assigning them a staggering 70% probability of securing the Premier League trophy once again.

In contrast, Arsenal emerges as the closest contender with a 30% chance of clinching the title, while Liverpool's chances are rated at 0%.

Looking ahead, Liverpool is slated to host Tottenham in their upcoming fixture, while Arsenal is set to welcome Bournemouth to the Emirates Stadium.

Manchester City, buoyed by their dominant form, will face Wolves at the Etihad Stadium in Saturday's late kick-off.

According to expected goals (xG), the likelihood of each team winning the Premier League title stands as follows:

- Manchester City: 70%
- Arsenal: 30%
- Liverpool: 0%
