The Gunners last won the title in 2004, as Arsene Wenger’s Invincibles went the whole Premier League season unbeaten.
Arsenal have challenged for the title the last two seasons in a row, but fell just short against a ruthlessly consistent City side.
However, Allardyce reckons 2025 will be the year that Arsenal will be champions again.
“I just think that it’s four on the trot, never been done before,” began Allardyce.
“I think that they have got so much more pressure on them every time it goes on to make it five now, and the effort it needs to put into that.
“Of course, if they have sold Alvarez and they don’t replace him, I just think that’s a bit of a blow for Man City.
“I also think Arsenal have been growing in the last two, three seasons and they came very close last year, but the year before they should have won it and they blew.
“They blew the title. I think this time the squad has got better, more additions to the squad and so will bring Man City close.
“And that’s why I have just picked Arsenal over Man City.”
