Arsenal have been handed a major chance to strengthen their Premier League title charge today, thanks to the latest twist in the results of their closest rivals.Liverpool and City stumble at the worst possible timeBefore a ball was kicked this season, most expected Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal to battle for the title once again. Five games into the season, Liverpool were five points clear at the top, while Arsenal and City were left chasing.Fast forward seven matches and the picture has changed dramatically. With a win over Tottenham today, Arsenal can move 11 points ahead of the reigning champions. Liverpool’s recent losses have also seen them fall away from the race, removing one of the three early-season favourites from the conversation.From Arsenal’s perspective, the timing of these setbacks could not be better. City’s narrow defeat to Newcastle, combined with Liverpool’s collapse against Nottingham Forest, has opened the door wide for Mikel Arteta’s side to take an early command of the standings.Arsenal v Tottenham Match Preview and PredictionA chance Arsenal cannot afford to wasteIf Arsenal beat Spurs today, the significance will stretch far beyond the three points. It will strengthen belief, provide momentum and send a message to every rival that the Gunners mean business. Stretching the gap this early, with half a dozen key players still to return, would be a clear warning that the second half of the season could be even stronger.However, perspective will remain crucial. As impressive as the situation looks today, Arteta knows better than anyone how quickly momentum can swing in the Premier League. The heartbreaks of recent years have taught this team the value of staying grounded, and nothing is won in November.Chelsea, City and even Liverpool still pose a real threat over the coming months. The onus is therefore on Arsenal to remain focused, block out the noise and approach each fixture with the discipline and maturity of a side expecting to challenge until the very end.Opinion: Beating Tottenham is not optional for Arsenal this timeWhat did you make of our rivals dropping points yesterday Gooners?I am absolutely brimming with confidence.
