Charlie Nicholas backs Arsenal to win Premier League title this season

Charlie Nicholas is confident that Arsenal are capable of winning the Premier League this season following a four-game unbeaten run.

Charlie Nicholas has backed his former club Arsenal to have their hands on the Premier League title come May.

Arsene Wenger's side had a poor start to the season as they suffered a 2-0 defeat to West Ham United at the Emirates on the opening day of the campaign.

Since then though, the Gunners have gone unbeaten in four games, and they face out-of-form Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this Saturday.

"I may be the only one who thinks this, but I believe that this current group is good enough to win the league," Nicholas told Sky Sports News.

"They had an awful start against West Ham but all of a sudden they have got a pretty good run of games going. It is up to them to prove their competitive edge and spirit."

Chelsea have suffered three defeats already this season, and are 11 points behind leaders Manchester City.
