Premier League: Spurs favourites for title, says Ranieri

Leicester boss, Claudio Ranieri, says Tottenham Hotspur are the favourites for the Premier League title. Ranieri’s side are currently top of the table with 56 points, two ahead of Spurs. The Italian said that Mauricio Pochettino’s team are “strong in every situation…when they defend and when they attack they know what they want.” He also refused to rule Arsenal out of the race, despite their 3-2 defeat to Manchester United at the weekend. The Gunners are five points adrift in third, with Manchester City a further four points off but with a game in hand.
