With little over a week to go before the Premier League season’s conclusion, Arsenal will be optimistic to win the title and end their two-decade wait to lift the English football’s holy grail. Arsenal with two matches to go are on the brink of lifting the title but that won’t happen without a helping hand. Sitting top of the Premier League standings at the time of writing, Arsenal have 83 points from 36 matches while Manchester City in second place have 82 points from 35 matches.
What needs to happen for Arsenal to win the Premier League?
The odds remain against the Gunners winning the Premier League title as Manchester City hold their fate in their own hands. Three wins in three matches for Pep Guardiola’s men will see them get crowned champions, having no bearing on what Arsenal do in their remaining two matches. Considering the best scenario for Mikel Arteta’s men, they need to win both their matches and hope Man City don’t surpass their points tally.
This would mean Arsenal finish on 89 points while Man City need to finish on 88 points or fewer. For City to finish with that point, they should lose at least one match or draw two matches in their remaining three matches.
Man City’s three matches remaining include Fulham (Saturday), Spurs (Tuesday) and West Ham United (May 18). Arsenal could be given a big helping hand by arch-rivals Spurs if they beat Man City on Tuesday, but having lost four consecutive matches the result is highly unlikely.
