Definitely. There are 5 teams they would have to overtake, with a cumulative total of 69 points more between them. Still, bookies will offer odds for as long as there's a mug to fork out.
William Hill's title odds: Liverpool 4/5 Manchester city 6/5 Tottenham 16/1 Chelsea 100/1 Manchester united 250/1 Arsenal 500/1
Given how ****e Arsenal's defence is and how I'd expect Emery to target the Europa League as a back door to CL footy, I think Utd (now playing to their attacking strengths) will overhaul them for 5th. I'd take that match bet if it was available for the remainder of the season. Still think Spurs and Chelsea will hold them both off for the top4.
That’s a punt at the beginning of the season when all the teams are equal on points. The mancs would be expensive at 1000-1

There are a lot of Man Utd fans who will be sticking money on them, that effects the odds. The odds are set at what the bookies feel is sensible. If they could get punters to stick dosh on at lower odds, they'd shorten them.

My own interpretation You invest £15 for Liverpool to win it and you get £8. Loss of £7 You invest £11 for city to win it and you get £8 .Loss £3 Makes city favourite or Liverpool???.
