Competition for the top 4 rankings will continue to be fierce between Chelsea and Man City. And yes, because currently Chelsea is 1 point ahead, that means Man City itself cannot lose any more points. Because if Man City loses points again then all of that will only make Chelsea leave Man City even further and make Man City possibly lose more opportunities to overtake Chelsea. There are fewer games left this season. So just one mistake can be the deciding factor this season. Currently, Newcastle could even win the top 4 position if Newcastle manages to take advantage of the 1 postponed match they have. And if that happens, Man City will change positions with Newcastle, namely Man City could drop to 6th place.
The competition is for second to forth position, Liverpool is very likely retain number position this season because they are 12 points ahead of Arsenal. It won't be an easy thing now for Arsenal to make it to first position. For now the competition between Arsenal and Nottingham is getting tense for second position, as there is only 4 points gap between these two team. Arsenal next game is against Fulham while Nottingham will take on Manchester United in next encounter. Arsenal has habit of losing games at crucial stages, if they lose game against Fulham then they might not able to retain there second position this season.
Surprisingly, playing with virtually the same squad, Liverpool will probably still win the EPL this year. Apparently for this Liverpool had to sacrifice the cup and the Champions League, but the EPL is Liverpool's main priority.
In general, the team with Endo, Nunez, Tsimikas and Chiesa in reserve should not win EPL in any case, but City is in crisis right now, Arsenal lost almost all of their strikers and for now we see the best of Salah's season and it is unclear where Liverpool would be now without Salah and if City was playes like they did last season.
Surely the premier league belongs to Liverpool this season but not sure for next season Liverpool played very well this season but they missed the champions League this season and for that reason they will put more effort in premier League and I believe nothing can stop them from lifting it this season, the season is already ending so nothing can stop them they are already giving arsenal a very big gap when it comes to point, Arsenal had already missed the premier league this season just like they did two seasons ago after the end of this season they should look for a very good striker and buy the lack of a striker is the reason for there inconsistency, I think victor osime should come to Arsenal because Arsenal will be the best place for him since he really wants to come to English premier league Arsenal has good players and a very good coach they will give him the passes he needs to score goals.
As for Manchester City I really don't know what there problem is however let see how next season will be for them.
