The race for the Premier League title seems to be going down to the last Gameweek as neither Manchester City nor Liverpool is dropping points. Manchester City cruised past Manchester United in a 4-1 derby win. While Liverpool edged past West Ham United with Sadio Mane scoring the only goal in the 27th minute.
Kevin De Bruyne played one of the best games of his season as he scored twice and provided one assist in the Manchester derby.
Arsenal is flying high with four consecutive wins, the latest coming against Watford in a five-goal thriller. Arsenal escaped Watford scare with a 3-2 win which saw they go 4th in the table. Manchester United are one point behind Arsenal with the Red Devils playing three more games.
Nothing seems to be going right for Manchester United as they have won only two of their last five Premier League games. United seem to be losing sight of the top 4 after a disappointing performance at the Etihad, where they failed to register any attempted shots in the second half.
Chelsea remains 3rd after a blistering second-half performance against Burnley at Turn Moor. The Blues scored four goals in 20 minutes after a goalless first half. Chelsea has a 5 point cushion over 4th placed Arsenal, while they are 10 points behind Liverpool with a game in hand.
At the other end of the table, Watford and Burnley dropped points against top 4 contenders Arsenal and Chelsea respectively. Norwich City fails to go above Watford after a 3-1 loss to Brentford. Leeds United are only two points off the relegation battle after a 1-0 loss at King Power Stadium to Leicester.

More action from the Gameweek has been expected as Tottenham Hotspurs take on 17th placed Everton. Spurs will be looking to go equal on points with West Ham United, and Everton looking to step further away from the relegation battle.
Norwich, Chelsea, Southampton, Wolves, Watford, Leeds, and Aston Villa have a double Gameweek with their 2nd match coming during the mid-week. It is not looking good for the teams in the relegation battle as Norwich will host 3rd placed Chelsea. Leeds face Aston Villa who thrashed Southampton 4-0 earlier this week, and Watford faces stubborn Wolves.
