Following Arsenal’s loss to Nottingham Forest on Saturday, Manchester City prevailed in the Premier League title race and have won the League for the fifth time in the past six years. Having only a single match left in the campaign, the outcome gives Manchester City an unstoppable four-point advantage over Arsenal at the summit of the league.
Arsenal’s bid to claim the Premier League for the very first time since 2003/04 was crushed by City thanks to an incredible sequence of 11 straight victories in the final few weeks of the campaign. At a certain point in January, City was eight points behind Arsenal, although the defending champions haven’t lost after a 1-0 setback at Tottenham on February 5, when Mikel Arteta’s team stumbled.

During their final home game of the year at the Etihad against Chelsea, Guardiola’s men will compete for the title for the third consecutive year when they take on Chelsea. A Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League treble is now within reach for City, a record only accomplished only once in English football by Manchester United in the 1998–99 season.
When they attempt to win the European Cup for the very first time, City is going to play Manchester United in the FA Cup final on June 3 and Inter Milan in the Champions League final on June 10.
Just three teams have claimed more Premier League trophies in the long history of the English premier division since 1888 than Manchester City, which has nine trophies to its name.
Just Alex Ferguson (13) has claimed higher Premier League championships than Pep Guardiola, who is the sixth person to ever win a total of five English top-flight championships.
