Manchester city will beat Arsenal with the Premier League title, Micah Richards predicts.
But the City icon believes the situation would have been more nerve-wracking for his former club if there had been no match change.
As it stands, Arsenal are one point ahead of City, but crucially they have played a game more than their rivals.
The Gunners travel to Manchester United on Sunday before hosting Everton on the final day of the season, while the Citizens are away to Fulham and then Tottenham before West Ham visit the Etihad on the final day.
For weeks, many were hailing the Spurs match as the decisive match in the title race, while all other games were predicted to be easy wins for the future champions.
Even a draw would likely not be enough for Pep Guardiola's side given their inferior goal difference, but Tottenham's terrible form in recent weeks has left pundits and fans in little doubt that City will cruise to victory and ultimately lift the trophy.
Richards agrees and continues The Rest is Football podcast: 'You look at City, who also have Spurs away, but the rest of those games you think they will probably win.
'Spray away, their record there hasn't been great lately, it's getting warmer. But I just think Man City has the edge.
'If Spurs had played Manchester City three weeks ago the City fans would have been a bit more nervous, but Spurs are conceding too many goals.
'If they try to play that high line against Manchester City they will be absolutely battered. They will have to change a little.
'It will be an interesting match, but I think Manchester City have too much. I think both Man City and Arsenal will win their remaining matches, even if we want to see a little danger.'
It's interesting that Richards says this as Tottenham vs Man City was originally scheduled for April 20, but was moved to May 14 due to the latter's involvement in the FA Cup semi-finals.
Prior to the original date, Ange Postecoglou's side had won eight of their last eleven matches and lost just one. They are now on a run of four consecutive defeats, conceding thirteen goals.
Tottenham have been City's bogey team of late, with City winning just two of their last six meetings and winning just once at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
However, that victory came back in January, when they triumphed 1-0 over the Lilywhites in the fourth round of the FA Cup thanks to a late goal from Nathan Aké.
