The Premier League ends in less than a month, on May 19, but it is impossible to say which team will be crowned champions. The fight is absolutely three-way, the situation is as follows: 1. Arsenal 74 points (77-26 goal difference), 2. Liverpool 74 (75-32), 3. Manchester City 73. It cannot be neglected that the Manchester team have played one less game they have a game, and if we give them the three points in the missed meeting against Tottenham, we can put them in first place with a two-point advantage, but if they only play (this includes away games), then the points are totally identical.
There are few matches left, but there are several that could be a banana peel for one or the other gold prospect, which could easily slip away. The London derby against Chelsea is about to be like this for Arsenal. Although the rival is not shining in its best light, it is only in ninth place in the table, but it has been undefeated in eight league games, and in this series it also stole a point from the home of Manchester City. Mikel Arteta is not fooled by Chelsea’s position either.
“They have undergone enormous development,” Arsenal’s Spanish coach said on the club’s website. – They deserve a much better ranking than where they are, just look at their performance in their matches. They have an excellent coach in Mauricio Pochettino, a real leader who does an amazing job. It will be a London derby, with two strong teams on the field, we will have to give our best.
It is interesting that in the great race between Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City, Chelsea can be the difference in the end. Only Liverpool have been able to beat Pochettino’s team in the Premier League so far this season.
the matches against Chelsea were memorable for him, as he made his debut in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge last August with a 1-1 draw, and in the second leg in Liverpool he was the main character in a 4-1 victory in one of his best matches in England so far.
Arsenal coach says Liverpool and City are the best
Liverpool have thus brought four points to Chelsea this season, Manchester City only two (4-4 and 1-1), and Arsenal one so far (2-2). Pochettino’s team can now – again – do Liverpool a big favor if they do not lose in their second appearance against the Gunners.
“This could be the tightest season of all time, because we depend on two other teams,” Arteta said about the fierce battle for the title, and then praised Liverpool and Manchester City. – These are the two best teams in the Premier League this decade, but they are also among the best in the history of the league.
