While the gap remains at nine, Man City now have two games in hand over Arsenal, and will welcome the league leaders to the Etihad Stadium next weekend in what will almost certainly serve as a title-decider.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

When also factoring in the convincing manner in which City won the Carabao Cup final and their Champions League exit, Arteta is going to have to rally his players to get a result at the Etihad to remain on track.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Though, the next week will determine who takes control of the title race heading into the final stages of the campaign.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Man City\u2019s maximum points total is 85, which means the Gunners require 16 more points from a possible 18 to clinch the title<\/strong> and that works out to be five wins and a draw from their remaining matches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Arsenal, going into the Bournemouth clash, had the security blanket of knowing they could afford one defeat from their remaining seven games but it\u2019s all change now after Saturday\u2019s setback.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Due to Man City\u2019s trip to Burnley being rearranged for April 22, it means there is a scenario where they\u2019ll be level on points with the Gunners if they win their next three games.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
