Man City’s next six Premier League fixtures compared with Arsenal ahead of West Ham clash
On Sunday afternoon, Manchester City won an important match against Fulham at Craven Cottage and moved to the top of the Premier League table.
This victory came after a 4-1 win against Arsenal earlier in the week. In the game against Fulham, Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez scored goals for Manchester City, resulting in a 2-1 win.
As Arsenal did not have a match until Tuesday, Manchester City overtook them in the Premier League table.
Having secured two good victories in the past week, Manchester City is likely to be confident about retaining their Premier League title.
However, Pep Guardiola will ensure that his players remain focused until the end of the season. Manchester City still has the FA Cup final against Manchester United in early June and a Champions League semi-final to play, so there is still much to play for this season.
ArsenalBrief t has conducted a thorough analysis of Manchester City’s next six Premier League matches, comparing them to those of Arsenal, ahead of the upcoming match against West Ham on Wednesday night.
Arsenal – 2nd (75pts)
- Chelsea (H) – May 2
- Newcastle United (A) – May 7
- Brighton (H) – May 14
- Nottingham Forest (A) – May 20
- Wolves (H) – May 28
Manchester City – 1st (76pts)
- West Ham (H) – May 3
- Leeds United (H) – May 6
- Everton (A) – May 14
- Chelsea (H) – May 21
- Brighton (A) – May 24
- Brentford (H) – May 28
Now that Manchester City has moved ahead of Arsenal in the Premier League table, their goal will be to maintain their position.
However, Arsenal still has the opportunity to reclaim the top spot if they win against Chelsea on Tuesday night, although this outcome is dependent on Chelsea’s performance. Manchester City’s upcoming fixtures include matches against West Ham and Leeds at home in the next week, and they will likely aim to secure six points from these games.
Everton is currently struggling to avoid relegation, which means that their upcoming away match at Goodison Park could pose even more of a challenge than usual.
Sean Dyche’s team is in dire need of points, which means that Everton might set up defensively to try and secure a draw.
On the other hand, Manchester City will likely feel confident playing at home against Chelsea, but will not underestimate their opponents.
The matches against Brighton and Brentford could be considered the most challenging for Manchester City.
