Rio Ferdinand backs Man City to retain Premier League
Speaking on TNT Sports, Ferdinand said:
)
“On paper, I think Man City have got the easier run-in and experience is going to play a big part.
"Liverpool have three away games against teams that you wouldn’t say are big teams [Fulham, Everton, and West Ham] but three away games [in a row] are difficult.
"Aston Villa away as well and Manchester United away at the weekend.“
Arsenal have the toughest run-in and for Man City… I’ve said this from the beginning of the season and I’ll continue to say this now, they are favourites."
