Manchester City
The Citizens have exited the Champions League, shifting their primary focus towards clinching the Premier League title in the season's final stretch. Fortunately, their title rivals are prone to slip-ups and dropped points, whereas Manchester City consistently accumulates crucial points. Currently occupying the second spot in the league table, City trails Arsenal by just one point. However, in terms of points dropped, Pep Guardiola's men lead the league, having a game in hand.

Last Saturday, Wolverhampton hosted Luton, one of the league's underdogs, securing a narrow 2-1 victory. This win halted Wolverhampton's winless streak of six matches in the Premier League.
