Pep Guardiola&#8217;s men are in good shape at the best of times and seem to be heading towards a new championship title. Opposite Arsenal is suffering the blow and has had a series of poor performances for several weeks.<\/p>\n<h2>9 points of deficit made up in two weeks by City<\/h2>\n<p>Everything was going well for the Gunners until their defeat in the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City (0-2). With 4 defeats in their last 6 matches, Mikel Arteta&#8217;s men can no longer get their heads above water. Saturday against Newcastle, they will have to return to victory, otherwise their end of the season will be greatly complicated.<\/p>\n<p>With the trip to the Metropolitano on Wednesday in their sights, Arsenal will have to turn things around to arrive with fresh legs in the semi-final of the Champions League.<\/p>\n<h2>Pep Guardiola finds his executives<\/h2>\n<p>Metamorphosed, Bernardo Silva, Erling Haaland and others have been able to raise the bar. They now have 3 home matches and two away matches to negotiate in their title race. They will also have to try to qualify for the Cup final on Saturday, against Southampton.<\/p>\n<p>With Rayan Cherki at the top of his game, Manchester City has the cards in hand to retain their title. The Sky Blues will still have to face stronger opponents (Aston Villa, 4th, and Bournemouth, 7th). With the best coach in the world on the bench, can the Premier League escape them?<\/p>\n<h2>Arsenal&#8217;s end-of-season schedule<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>04\/25\/26 &#8211; 34th day Arsenal &#8211; Newcastle (14th)<\/li>\n<li>02\/05\/26 &#8211; 35th day Arsenal &#8211; Fulham (12th)<\/li>\n<li>10\/05\/26 &#8211; 36th day West Ham (17th) &#8211; Arsenal<\/li>\n<li>17\/05\/26 &#8211; 37th day Arsenal &#8211; Burnley (19th)<\/li>\n<li>05\/24\/26 &#8211; 38th day Crystal Palace (13th) &#8211; Arsenal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"embed-placeholder u-placeholder-twitter\" data-vendor=\"xtwitter-3cVkYrxq\">\n<div class=\"p-xxl@xs border-color-grey-200 radius-l@xs cmp-placeholder u-hidden\">\n<p class=\"mb-m@xs text-l@xs\">By clicking on<span class=\"ml-xxs@xs font-weight-bold@xs\">\u201cI accept\u201d<\/span>you accept the deposit of cookies by external services and will thus have access to the content of our partners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-xl@xs text-s@xs\">More information on the Cookie management policy page<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"mx-auto@xs flex@xs items-center@xs justify-center@xs gap-xxs@xs c-btn c-btn--primary cmp-button\">I accept<\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Manchester City&#8217;s remaining schedule<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>04\/05\/26, 35th day: Everton (10th) \u2013 Manchester City<\/li>\n<li>05\/09\/26 36th day: Manchester City \u2013 Brentford (9th)<\/li>\n<li>17\/05\/26 37th day: Bournemouth (7th) \u2013 Manchester City<\/li>\n<li>05\/24\/26 38th day: Manchester City \u2013 Aston Villa (4th)<\/li>\n<li>Date unknown (31st day &#8211; Late match): Manchester City &#8211; Crystal Palace (13th)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now leader of the Premier League, based on the difference in goals scored (66 against 63 for Arsenal), Manchester City has managed to take the reins of the championship for the first time in 8 months.
