Man City 2-1 Aston Villa

Big win by Man City. The winning goal was scored in the stoppage time, but the City fully deserved that win.
This was the only match of round 34, the rest to be played tomorrow. The pressure is on for Nottm Forest, Newcastle, and most of all, for Chelsea, who are now outside of the top 5 (the Champions League zone) with two points behind.

It isn't a big win, Man City only won the match with a narrow score. True, Man City scored the winning goal in injury time. Grin

Man City deserves to win the match, they really dominated the match. I don't know why Aston Villa performed rather badly in this match, I saw unfamiliar starting lineup. Emery put Watkins, Asensio, and Donyell Malen on the bench. IMO, these players performed quit well for Aston Villa recently, it is just surprising to see them on the bench. Undecided

Man City is in the top 3 now. But Nottm Forest, Newcastle, and Chelsea still can overtake Man City again. It surely depends on the result of the next matches.

Win is always won big or small not matter because this win give 3 points to Manchester City now their chances are also increased for staying into top five which is big boost for them after this win against Aston Villa.
Nottingham and Newcastle United both can overtake Manchester City, but Chelsea is having no chance of going into top five because they are having 57 points while Manchester City is having currently 61 points which giving them advantage for staying into top five. Chelsea is having fewer chances than Aston Villa or other teams for having spot into top five because their mostly encounters are challenging while other top teams are having easy matches which give good advantage to them.

Chelsea vs Everton is going to play at Stamford Bridge which is not easy place for Everton while Chelsea home record is also good which give them good advantage, and they can easily take three points from here in last two games Everton not able to score any goal here.
