As things stand, Arsenal are at the top of the table with 76 points from 35 matches. Man City are chasing them closely, sitting second with 71 points from 34 matches. The Gunners currently hold the reins in the title race, although any further dropped points from the top two teams will change the scenario.
When Can Arsenal Win Premier League Title?
For Arsenal to lift their first Premier League title since the 2003-04 season, they have a simple equation: win their remaining three games. If they do, and assuming City win all of theirs, the North London side will be crowned champions on the final day of the season.
However, if City fail to win their next four league games, Arsenal can wrap up the title faster. Man City have a punishing run of four matches in 11 days coming up, starting with a clash against Brentford on May 9.
If City lose against the Bees and then fail to beat Crystal Palace on May 13, they will be unable to catch up with Arsenal, who need to win against West Ham on May 10. In that scenario, the Gunners will be the champions with two games in hand.
Elsewhere, the fight for the European spots is also warming up. The teams between sixth and 11th are separated by just four points, which means that six teams are still pushing for the final UEFA Champions League place, which is currently occupied by Aston Villa with 58 points.
