“Premier League Title Race Could Be Decided on the Final Day with Epic Showdown”
The Premier League title race is heating up as Arsenal currently sit at the top of the table by a narrow point above reigning champions, Manchester City. With one game in hand, City is looking to bridge the gap and reclaim the top spot.
Historic Possibilities for Current Premier League Title Contenders
Liverpool, despite stumbling after a disappointing derby defeat to Everton, are still in the race, trailing by three points. A sensational stat from Opta has revealed that all three title-chasing teams could potentially finish the season with an impressive 86 points each.
Remaining Fixtures for Title Chasers
City leads the pack with five remaining games against Wolves, Tottenham, Nottingham Forest, Fulham, and West Ham. Last season, City secured wins against Wolves, Fulham, and West Ham but settled for a draw against Forest and suffered a loss to Spurs, accumulating a total of ten points.
Arsenal’s last season encounters against Tottenham, Bournemouth, and Everton resulted in victories, but a loss to United cost them three points. Matching last season’s results would propel Arsenal to an 86-point finish.
Liverpool emerged victorious in all four remaining fixtures last season against West Ham, Spurs, Villa, and Wolves, garnering the maximum 12 points.
Potential Title Decider on Goal Difference
Should all three teams replicate their results from last season, the top three contenders would be tied at 86 points each, leading to a title showdown decided by goal difference. The only instance where the Premier League title was settled on goal difference was back in 2012, thanks to Sergio Aguero’s iconic last-gasp winner for Manchester City against QPR.
The Road to Victory for Arsenal
Presently, Arsenal holds the advantage with the best goal difference, positioning them favorably for a potential first title win since their remarkable 2004 Invincibles season.
Excitement mounts as the stage is set for a dramatic conclusion in the Premier League title race, with fans eagerly anticipating how the remaining fixtures will unfold.
