Outlook of Manchester City's Last three Fixtures As Premier League Title Race With Arsenal Heats Up


As we head into the final stages of the Premier League campaign, it is in Manchester City’s hands to claim their fourth consecutive title, so we took a deeper look at their remaining three fixtures.

City currently sit one point behind league leaders Arsenal, but they do have a game in hand over the North London outfit, so it remains that City to lose for them to gain better advantage.

Making the final stretch of the EPL even more exciting, City’s next league fixture is on the road against Fulham on Saturday, who have had a mixed bag in terms of results this season as they currently sit 13th in the league standings. Though Fulham have only won just one of their 15 home Premier League games against City (five draws, nine defeats)

Pep Guardiola will know that his side will have to be on top of their game in this one, as Fulham beat Arsenal at Craven Cottage 2–1 earlier on in the campaign, so they are certainly capable of an upset. Although, it is fair not think this one will be straightforward for City, one can predict that they will go away with the three points.

Another is Tottenham Hotspur, they have the most wins by a club in the Premier League against Manchester City, with 28 wins and In the reverse fixture earlier on in the season, Spurs picked up a hard-earned point at the Etihad, after Dejan Kulusevski scored a 90th-minute equaliser in a 3-3 draw.

This game is arguably City’s toughest test out of their remaining three games, as Spurs have an outside chance at finishing in the top four and knew they needed to have a perfect finish to give themselves a chance, but the current form of the two sides. Speculations may be that the visitors will make away with a win in this one. 

As well, looking at the Manchester City’s final game of the season is against West Ham United, who have recently announced that David Moyes will be leaving at the end of the season, so this will be his last game in charge.

Although West Ham currently sit ninth place in the EPL, so are on track with fairly played games to have a better campaign than last season, where they finished down in the bottom half of the table at fourteenth.

Well this should be a comfortable home win for the City's if they do not jeopardize their chances.
