Arsenal are top of the Premier League table after 13 games and will be desperate to go one better this term after finishing second last season.
The Gunners are just a point ahead of Manchester City and two points ahead of Liverpool and Aston Villa, so they are not clear favourites to clinch the title.
However, Paul Merson believes Arsenal could win the Premier League if they pick up all the points available from their next five games.
The games are coming in thick and fast ahead of the festive period, and it is a time of the campaign when teams can establish themselves as key contenders and challengers for the league title.
“Five games before boxing day, big five games coming up for every team,” Merson said on Sky Sports.
“If Arsenal get through this, I think Arsenal win the league.”
The North Londoners play Wolverhampton Wanderers later today before facing Luton Town later on Tuesday.
They travel to face Aston Villa next Saturday before facing Brighton & Hove Albion afterwards.
A trip to Anfield to face Liverpool on December 23rd is next with West Ham United and Fulham their last games of the year before Premier League action resumes on January 20.
