With Arsenal and Chelsea setting a similarly brisk pace at the top of the table, Giggs believes there will be little margin for error as they wrestle with the demands of a congested fixture list.

"In the end, the team who holds their nerve the best will win the title," the 34-year-old said. "It also comes down to the team who can best handle the amount of games they have left to play. Around the end of the season there are so many games to play, so the team that can use their squad best will be the one that comes out on top.

"We know that all of the teams in contention are more than capable of going on a ten or 11-game unbeaten run between now and the end of the season, and the game against each other may also play a big part in deciding where the title goes."
