Finally the two of them! Time for the big top derby in Premier League between Manchester City and Arsenal arrived, with the two teams facing off on Wednesday night (26/4, 22:00) at “Etihad” in the framework of 33rd “turn” of the championship.
In first place, of course, the “gunners” continue to lead, in their quest for the historic return to the titles after 2004. They are in +5 by the “citizens”, however the momentum clearly belongs to the home team. And this, on the one hand, because (in addition to playing at home) they have two games less, on the other hand, because of the last competitive situation of both. On the one hand, they are coming off the back of a five-game winning streak in the League, as well as qualifying for the semi-finals of the Champions League and the FA Cup final. On the other hand, the visitors count three consecutive draws, losses that have reduced the difference they had built. It should be remembered that in their two meetings this year, City has the same number of victories (3-1 away for the league and 1-0 at home for the FA Cup).
From then on, there is the battle between you Tottenham and Manchester United on Thursday (27/4, 22:15) in London. In one of the last chances of the “spurs” – who come from the supersonic “sfaliara” (6-1) from Newcastle – to catch up with the four.
Also of great interest is the clash between Leeds and Leicester, in their attempt to avoid relegation. The same battle is being fought by Everton, who welcome Newcastle. Against West Ham and Brentford, Liverpool and Chelsea, respectively.
