Former England defender Martin Keown has named the team he believes will challenge Arsenal and Manchester City for the Premier League title.
According to Keown, Aston Villa could emerge as dark horses in the title race.
Unai Emeryās men are currently in third place with 30 points, three behind leaders Arsenal.
Manchester City occupy second spot with 31 points.
Emery has been quick to downplay his teamās title credentials, but Keown believes the Midlands club can mount a serious challenge for the Premier League trophy.
āUnai Emery doesnāt want to create too much pressure or attraction around his team,ā Keown said on talkSPORT.
āWe have to say that, yes, Aston Villa are in the title race. I do think they are and thatās more to do with their manager than anything else. Emery has turned them into title challengers.ā
