For the third time under Pep Guardiola and fifth in total, Manchester City enters the final day of the Premier League season with the title still up for grabs.
Arsenal’s narrow victory over Manchester United ensured that City could not win their fourth consecutive top-flight crown until matchday 38.
Guardiola’s men were not at their best, but they got the job done with a tense 2-0 victory in their remaining match against Tottenham on Tuesday.
It means City are back on top heading into Sunday, when they and Arsenal have the advantage of playing in front of their home fans against teams with relatively little at stake.
No team in Premier League history has gone into a final matchday matchup with an advantage and finished it without the trophy in their hands. Are City likely to maintain that run? The Jugo Mobile breaks down the permutations below.
How can Manchester City win the Premier League?
With one game left in their 2023/24 Premier League campaign, the title goes to City.
Erling Haaland’s second-half brace and some heroics from substitute goalkeeper Stefan Ortega gave City a 2-0 win at Tottenham on Tuesday and a two-point lead heading into the final game of the season.
Arsenal had started the week on top thanks to their 1-0 victory over Manchester United.

What do Manchester City need to happen to become Premier League champions in 2024?
The equation is now very simple. If City beat West Ham in the last day Guardiola’s team will be champions for a record fourth successive season.
Anything less than a victory over David Moyes’ team will be time for nervous glances at the Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal host Everton.
If City fails to beat West Ham and Sunday games end with Arsenal beat Everton the 20 year wait will be over and The Gunners will have their fourth Premier League title..
Even if City draw, an Arsenal win would be enough for Arteta’s team to claim the title on goal difference because they go into the final weekend with a one-goal lead.
When is the last day of the 2023/2024 Premier League?
The 2023/24 Premier League season concludes on Sunday May 19. To be fair, all 10 matches start at the same time: 4pm BST (11am ET).
