Chelsea legend Terry predicts how EPL run-in will play out

Chelsea legend John Terry has predicted how the Premier League run-in will play out as the title race gathers momentum.

Arsenal moved three points clear at the top of the table on Tuesday night with an emphatic 5-0 win against Chelsea, but they have played a game more than second-placed Liverpool who face Everton in the Merseyside derby at Goodison Park tonight.

Manchester City are a further point back but have two games in hand on the Gunners, and still have their fate in their own hands.

Pep Guardiola's team are looking to become the first team ever to win the Premier League four times in a row, and Terry, who was inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame this week, has backed them to get the job done.

Taking part in a 'blind ranking' challenge, City popped up first to Terry's relief as he had no hesitation in putting them 'straight in at No1.'

Of the remaining title contenders, Arsenal came up next, and Terry placed the north London club third, before tipping Liverpool to finish second in Jurgen Klopp's final season at Anfield.

Chelsea's arch-rivals Tottenham appeared twice in the challenge, and Terry could not bring himself to even rank them as he opted to 'skip' on both occasions, such is his dislike for the club.

Instead, he reluctantly tipped Manchester United to finish fourth despite the Red Devils enduring a disappointing campaign under Erik ten Hag.

United are currently 16 points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa, albeit they have two games in hand on the Midlands club.

They are also 10 points adrift of Spurs in fifth having played the same number of matches, but Terry still refused to predict that Tottenham would finish above them. However, he did add that he expected Villa would actually take fourth place, but
