In contrast, Manchester City’s matches against Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester United, Brighton, Arsenal, Wolves, and Newcastle United led to three draws, three wins, and two losses.

Analyzing these statistics makes it evident that Arsenal and Liverpool are the frontrunners for winning the league.
