And then there were two. Liverpool FC are now well out of contention for the Premier League title, meaning it’s only a two horse race now. Arsenal sit top of the table, ahead of the a visit from AFC Bournemouth, but Manchester City have a game in hand, heading into the clash with Wolves. So if everyone wins out here, it is the reigning back to back champions, not the Gunners who would hoist the trophy on Championship Sunday.
The way things are going right now, it looks like we are going to have a title deciding final day.
