Paul Merson, a former England midfielder, has predicted that Arsenal would win the Premier League.<\/p>\n
After Saturday’s 3-0 victory over Fulham, Merson spoke on Sky Sports.<\/p>\n
Mikel Arteta’s squad dominated the first half, with goals from Viktor Gyokeres (2) and Bukayo Saka (1).<\/p>\n
Thanks to the victory, Arsenal now leads the league by six points, with two games in hand over Manchester City.<\/p>\n

When they host a Burnley team that has already been demoted to the Premier League a week later at the Emirates, they may not even be visible.<\/p>\n
