Man City Currently 1.08 To Win Title

Published on May 7th, 2014 1:23 pm EST
After months of back and forth battle, the English Premier League has essentially come down to this - it's Man City's to lose.

There are three times that are still alive in the race to win the English Premier League title - they are:

Man City
Liverpool
Chelsea

Man City is the CLEAR favourite to win the league, as you can see from these odds:

Man City, 1.08
Liverpool, 9.00
Chelsea, 151.00

Here are the current standings:

Liverpool, 25-6-6, 81 points
Man City, 25-5-6, 80 points
Chelsea, 24-7-6, 79 points

Now, Man City is currently in second place, but they have a crucial game in hand on both Liverpool and Chelsea.

Liverpool suffered a crushing setback this past weekend when they played to a 3-3 draw against Crystal Palace. Liverpool had the game in hand with a 3-0 lead but somehow managed to blow the game. This catastrophic tie will likely be the dagger in the hearts of Liverpool's fans.

Here are the remaining games for the three clubs that are still alive:

Liverpool

Home vs Newcastle

Man City

Home vs Aston Villa
Home vs West Ham

Chelsea

Away vs Cardiff City

As you can see from the remaining schedules, Man City will easily win the title if they win their remaining two games. Liverpool needs Man City to stumble in the final remaining two games, while Chelsea will need both Liverpool and Man City to both implode.

At the beginning of the season, it was thought that the English Premier League would boil down to a three team race - Man Utd, Man City and Chelsea.

Man Utd had a disastrous campaign while Liverpool outperformed expectations. In the end, however, Man City looks poised to win another EPL title.
