NPFL: Enyimba, Katsina United target CAR goalkeeper Kolimba

The Opta SuperComputer is sticking with Arsenal to win the 2025/2026 Premier League title, despite a 3-2 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday.

Matheus Cunha ended the Gunners’ unbeaten home record with a stunning strike from outside the box.

The result also meant that Mikel Arteta’s men’s lead at the top of the table was cut to four points, with Manchester City and Aston Villa winning over the weekend.

But Opta is still making Arsenal overwhelming favourites to become champions for the first time in over 20 years.

It has given them an 84.44% chance of finishing first, while City have an 8.38% probability.

Aston Villa have been given a 7.09% chance. Liverpool has less than 1%.

There are 15 fixtures left to be played in the league this campaign.

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen, has claimed that Napoli treated him like a dog during his time at the club.

Osimhen stated this when asked about his relationship with Napoli’s president Aurelio De Laurentiis before the club released a video mocking him on TikTok for missing a penalty against Bologna in the past.

According to the Galatasaray star, Napoli tried to send him everywhere after his fallout with the Serie A club.

“We had a gentleman’s agreement that I could leave the following summer, but the other side didn’t fully fulfill that commitment,” Osimhen told Gazzetta dello Sport.

“They tried to send me everywhere, they treated me like a dog. Go here, go there, do this, do that.

“I worked so hard for my career, I could not accept that kind of treatment. I’m not a puppet.”

This is ahead of Galatasaray’s UEFA Champions League Round of 16 playoff first leg tie on Tuesday.
