Pep Guardiola’s reigning and Premier League leaders Manchester City host Aston Villa at the Etihad on Sunday in what is said to be their final League game of the 2021-22 Premier League season and the ultimate title decider....CONTINUE READING THE FULL ARTICLE>>>
Only a victory can assure Manchester City the Premier League title. However a draw against Aston Villa can still clinch them their 4th League title in five seasons, that is if Liverpool fail to beat Wolverhampton Wanderers.
After a disappointing run in this season’s Champions League, Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City find themselves caught up in a title race against quadruple chasers Liverpool on final day.
Below are the 2 reasons why Manchester City will not win the Premier League title on final day.
1. Liverpool’s form
Jurgen Klopp made nine changes from the side that won the FA Cup against Chelsea last Sunday, but his Reds where still able to seal all 3 points against Southampton despite being without Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk.
If Liverpool’s remarkable winning form continues and they beat Wolverhampton Wanderers as expected, the pressure will be on Manchester City to deliver.
Even without Mohammed Salah, Liverpool are still strong favourites to win the game against Wolverhampton Wanderers and at the same time clinch the Premier League title ahead of Manchester City, because of the pressure that will be on City when they face in-form Aston Villa.
2. Steven Gerrad’s loyalty
We all know of Steven Gerrad’s “slip” that caused Liverpool the Premier League title back in 2014, and we also know that Steven Gerrad is forever loyal to Liverpool despite being the head coach of Aston Villa currently.
The Englishman has already indicated that his boys will take the game against Manchester City very serious as he hope to play a major role in helping Liverpool clinch the Premier League title ahead of Manchester City on final day.
If Steven Gerrad’s Aston Villa beat Man City at the Etihad on Sunday then Liverpool will surely win the Premier League title.
