Arsenal and Hull City will face off on Wednesday in the English Premier League.
Arsenal has a strong lead atop the table with 31 points on the season; second place Chelsea trails by four points with 27. Arsenal has accumulated a record of 10 wins, one draw and two losses while scoring 27 goals and only conceding 10.
''Absolutely they can win the league,'' said Hull City manager Steve Bruce, according to ESPN. ''We're a third of the way through so why can't they? They'll be like anybody else, hoping their big players stay fit, but when you look at their squad they're a match for anybody.
''Mr. Wenger, who I've got the hugest respect for, has produced another fantastic football team who are going to be there or thereabouts and in (Aaron) Ramsey they've got the outstanding player in the Premier League,'' Bruce added.
Arsenal is coming off a solid 3-0 win over Cardiff City that featured two goals from Ramsey. The Welshman scored his first off a beautiful header while the second was a terrific strike inside the penalty area off a solid counter attack. Ramsey leads Arsenal with eight goals on the season; he is second on the squad with four assists.
Hull City sits in 10th place in the league with 17 points, 12 goals scored and 16 against. The team's top scorer is Robert Bradey. Hull City is coming off a shocking 3-1 win at home over Liverpool. The team got goals from David Meyler and Jake Livermore in the victory; Liverpool's Martin Skrtel provided the third goal in the game.
Prediction: Arsenal wins 2-0.
