Barcelona striker Thierry Henry is backing former club Arsenal to win the Premier League.

Arsenal have no more league games against teams higher than themselves in the table and Henry thinks that could prove a crucial advantage in the title run-in.

"I know it's coming up to five years since we won a trophy," Henry told The Times. "But don't rule us out for the Premier League title this year.

"You can't - when a team have proved they can get up off the floor after not one heavy blow to the chin but two, you have to take their chances seriously.

"Arsene Wenger's players took two beatings in big matches - from Manchester United and then Chelsea - and still kept pace with those clubs at the top of the league."
