The title race is a battle between Arsenal 's superior defence and Liverpool 's more varied striking options.

Whoever falls short this season will be asking themselves if they could have done a little more in the transfer market.

The title will be won by the side who can overcome their current imperfections to get over the line.

Liverpool and Arsenal will be much stronger teams a year from now .

Liverpool ran out of gas in March and April last year , but have a much friendlier final stretch this time.

After a trip to the Etihad , the quirk of the fixture list means seven of their remaining 11 Premier League games are at Anfield .

City may be out of the race this time, but that does not diminish the symbolic importance of winning at City .

If Liverpool succeed where they and Arsenal have previously failed, it would be the most compelling evidence yet that it is Anfield -bound.
