Jurgen Klopp’s final season at Liverpool will conclude without another Premier League triumph, as Manchester City’s resounding 4-0 victory over Fulham has effectively extinguished the Reds’ dwindling hopes of clinching the title. With this win, the defending champions soar to the top of the table with 85 points. Liverpool, trailing by seven points, face an insurmountable task with only two matches remaining against Aston Villa and Wolves.
City’s dominant performance adds pressure on Arsenal, who must respond when they face Manchester United on Sunday at Old Trafford. A win for the Gunners would propel them back to the summit, edging ahead by one point with just one game left for them. Nonetheless, City holds the fate of the title in their hands, possessing a game in hand over their rivals. This pivotal match is scheduled for Tuesday, as City travels to face Tottenham, Arsenal’s local rivals, in a crucial showdown.
Should Manchester City secure another title, they would achieve a historic feat as the first Premier League team to claim the trophy four consecutive times. However, if Arsenal triumph over a struggling Manchester United, the title race will extend to the final day of the season. Arteta’s side will conclude their campaign against Everton at the Emirates Stadium, while Manchester City will host West Ham at the Etihad.
