Man City Still Have Something to Chase
Manchester City remain the only side with a live chance of catching Arsenal, but they now need a major slip from the leaders. The market still gives Pep Guardiola’s team an outside shot at 11/2, yet Arsenal’s control of the table means the pressure has shifted firmly away from north London.
Arsenal have done the hard part. They have the lead, the momentum and the shorter run-in, and the odds now reflect that reality. City are not done, but Arsenal are firmly on course to finish the job.
Arsenal vs Manchester City Remaining Fixtures
The title race is now firmly in Arsenal’s hands after their win over West Ham opened up a five-point gap at the top. Manchester City still have a game in hand, but the remaining fixture list slightly favours Mikel Arteta’s side.
Arsenal Remaining Fixtures
- Burnley (H)
- Crystal Palace (A)
Manchester City Remaining Fixtures
- Brentford (H)
- Bournemouth (A)
- Aston Villa (H)
City’s extra fixture keeps the race mathematically alive, but it also adds pressure. Arsenal know two wins almost certainly seals the title. City realistically need perfection and still require Arsenal to slip.
