Arsenal are closing in on the Premier League title with just two matches remaining in the season. Mikel Arteta's side currently sit at the top of the table, two points clear of second-placed Manchester City, as they aim to end a 22-year wait for the prestigious trophy.
Current Title Race Position
Arsenal hold the top spot with two games left to play. Manchester City kept the pressure on with a 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace, leaving them two points behind the Gunners. Both teams have the same number of matches remaining, making the race incredibly tight.
Earliest Possible Title Win
The earliest date Arsenal can officially secure the Premier League title is Tuesday, May 19. For this to happen, the Gunners must beat Burnley on Monday night, and Manchester City must draw or lose to Bournemouth the following day.
Extended Title Race Scenarios
If Arsenal fail to win against Burnley, the title race will be prolonged. Even if Manchester City lose to Bournemouth, the title would still be undecided. Should both rivals win their penultimate matches, the championship will be decided on the final day of the season, scheduled for Sunday, May 24, with all matches kicking off simultaneously.
Final Day Fixtures
Arsenal will conclude their campaign with an away match at Crystal Palace, while Manchester City host Aston Villa at home. The Gunners will need to secure a vital win on opposing turf, while City will hope to use home advantage to overtake their rivals at the last moment.
