In recent rounds, Arsenal and Liverpool have alternately led the standings, while defending champions Manchester City are pressing behind them, and the gap between them and the top of the table has narrowed to just one point, with coach Pep Guardiola leading the team to wait for the right time to complete the comeback.

In this round, Manchester City took the lead, sitting at home to face Luton, and finally relied on the joint goals of Haaland, Doku, Kovacic and Gvardiol, plus an own goal from the opponent, to win 5-1 and win 27 consecutive games in all competitions.

In the latest standings, Manchester City reached 73 points, temporarily overtaking Arsenal and Liverpool, who have 71 points, in the first round, and climbed to the top position, and then waited for Arsenal and Liverpool to drop the chain.

Liverpool's 3-0 home defeat to Atalanta in the knockout round of the Europa League this week ended their 34-game unbeaten streak. In addition, Arsenal's opponent in this round is Unai Emery's Villa, and it may be possible to go without a win, allowing Manchester City to truly lead the standings.

Arguably, Arsenal's schedule is the toughest, including three BIG6 civil battles, as well as whether the current fourth-placed Villa side will continue the previous collapse, which will also determine the success or failure of Arsenal's season title.

Compared to Arsenal, Liverpool have a better schedule, but not as easy as Manchester City. Recently, Liverpool has been dragged down by Manchester United, resulting in the Premier League conceding the top spot, the FA Cup out, and the Europa League on the verge of elimination, and it is not impossible to lose three titles in a short period of time.

As the defending champion, Manchester City only played against Tottenham in the last 6 rounds, and the other teams are not Manchester City's opponents.
