Epl title race

Published on:

The Premier League has entered the home stretch, and the classic title race is on! It is an exciting time for EPL fans whose teams are competing for the title. For the better part of the past decade, it has been Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola facing off. However, Mikel Arteta has built a formidable team that is competing in the title race for the second season in a row. This means that this season we have a three-horse race with Liverpool leading the pack with 67 points, closely followed by Arsenal with 65 points, while the reigning champions, City, are third with 65 points.

The big question is – who will be at the top come the end of the season? Let’s look at the remaining nine fixtures to determine who has a friendlier run-in on paper.

After the experiences of 2019 and 2022, Klopp’s men are well aware of what is expected of them if they are to win this title race. The key fixtures that Klopp will be looking at include the trip to Old Trafford and the home match against Aston Villa. He will also have to ensure his team sees off Tottenham at Anfield.

Apart from that, the Merseyside derby against Everton is also a tricky fixture. If you were working on your football betting strategy for the title race, these are some key fixtures to consider. Will The Reds give Klopp a title before he retires?

Arsenal

It looks like Arsenal has learned its lesson from last season’s slip-up. Last season, they went on a four-match winless run when the title race got heated. However, the addition of Declan Rice has helped to add some steel in the middle of the pack, and they’ll need the Englishman to be on top form in the remaining fixtures.

Arteta has three tricky fixtures, including hosting Unai Emery, who is fighting for a Champions League spot with Tottenham and United. The Gunners will also have to be at their best to see off Tottenham away in what promises to be a thrilling end-of-the-season London derby. After that, they’ll have to face United at the Theatre of Dreams. Besides that, they have to ensure that they continue thrashing the “weaker” opponents.

Manchester City

Does Pep Guardiola have the squad to mount a treble charge this season? The Citizens sit third on the table and could be more convincing. However, unlike their opponents, they have more favorable fixtures. Their biggest challenge will be to overcome Aston Villa and Tottenham; the other fixtures are winnable on paper.

Final Thoughts

Based on the remaining fixtures, City seem to have the best chance of winning their fourth title in a row. However, this is the EPL, and all teams play to win. Global football fans are gearing up for world-class entertainment as the top teams in England battle for the crown. Which team has the best chance of winning this fierce race?
