Manchester City temporarily snatched first place in the English championship from Arsenal, who have held it relentlessly since the beginning of October, by winning 1-0 on Wednesday at penultimate Burnley, officially relegated to the second division.
Arsenal will move back in front in the event of a win or draw on Saturday against Newcastle, but Manchester City still have a wild card, with a late match to play.
Pep Guardiola’s team has a perfectly identical record to Arsenal (70 points and +37 in goal difference) after 33 matches played, but it doubles it in the standings thanks to a higher total of goals scored (66 against 63).
