The games that will decide Premier League title race as Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool battle in run-in
Manchester City remain in pole position in the title race after another dramatic week at the top of the Premier League.
Arsenal’s thumping 5-0 win over Chelsea, their biggest over the Blues in Premier League history, has seen the Gunners move back to the top of the pile, having also recorded a convincing 2-0 win at Wolves in a firm response to their home loss to Aston Villa.
It has been less rosy for Liverpool. A home loss to Crystal Palace came between a shock Europa League exit, to leave their season on a knife edge. Jurgen Klopp rang the changes and duly dispatched Fulham 3-1, only to then see their title hopes all but end at the home of local rivals Everton in a damaging 2-0 Merseyside derby defeat.
All eyes were then on Manchester City. The reigning champions went to Brighton as one of their two games in hand, and duly dispatched the Seagulls 4-0 in a routine victory to move above Liverpool and to within a point of Arsenal.
