Arsene Wenger hopes Manchester City can get a draw at Chelsea
Wenger’s title hopes are all but over this season as his side trail Premier League leaders Chelsea by 13 points and City by eight.
However, a draw at Stamford Bridge could reignite a push for the championship, should Wenger’s men beat Aston Villa on Sunday.
The Gunners recorded a surprise 2-0 win over City last time out, but Wenger hopes Manuel Pellegrini’s men can at least get a point tomorrow.

When two big teams play against each other, you always want a draw
Wenger said on the title clash: “When two big teams play against each other, you always want a draw. Most of the time you get it.
“It could be a draw - a draw could be an acceptable result for Man City because it wouldn’t keep them out of the race of the championship.
“It is still a long way to go, with five points they are not out of it. With eight it could be more difficult.”
