The king returns to the throne

Man City are very close to winning the Premier League when they are standing above Liverpool in the table. In terms of scores, although Citizens is only 1 point better than The Kop, it is enough for Pep’s teachers and students to have the right to self-determination.

In the final match of the season, Man City will host Aston Villa. With form, physical strength and class all superior to the opponent, there is no reason why City can suddenly collapse in front of “paradise’s threshold”.

Mentally, being eliminated from the Champions League and FA Cup, the Premier League is Manchester City’s remaining hope, so the team will certainly not miss this opportunity.

On the other side of the line, Aston Villa have run out of goals this season and they are very comfortable psychologically when they have only lost 1 match in the last 5 rounds in the English Premier League.

However, marching to Etihad is never an easy task. However, coach Steven Gerrard frankly stated that he and his students are not interested in the championship race, the former Liverpool midfielder just wants to win every game.

Of course, if the legendary captain of The Kop can stop the progress of the blue army and Liverpool are crowned in suffocation, that is definitely the best scenario for Anfield fans.

In general, Man City is forced to win Aston Villa at all costs. A result with no points or even 1 point can cause the trophy that Pep and his students touched with one hand to be robbed by Liverpool at the last minute!
