Who has the easiest title run-in of Arsenal and Man City?

The Premier League title race is heating up after Arsenal’s defeat to Bournemouth, with second-placed Manchester City having two games in hand on the Gunners.

Arsenal still have their destiny in their own hands, but the Bournemouth loss came off defeats in the League Cup final to Man City and in the FA Cup to Southampton.

If Pep Guardiola’s men win all their remaining fixtures, including the all-important clash at home to Arsenal next month, then it’ll come down to goal difference to decide the title.

With just six games left to play this season, Arsenal are still in pole position, but they’ve been here before and let it slip.

Confidence is in danger of being pierced, but defeat in Manchester might not necessarily be fatal. The two Premier League title-chasers still have each other to play, at the Etihad on April 18.

Mikel Arteta’s Gunners also have two of the bottom three to play between now and the end of the campaign, and only City of the league’s current top seven.

City, meanwhile, have two more of the ‘big six’ to play – following an away match with Chelsea by facing off with Arsenal in April.

Like Arsenal, they also face relegation-threatened Burnley before the end of the season, but finish the campaign with a tough match against Champions League-cashing Aston Villa, which could help to decide the title.

Here’s a full breakdown of all the remaining fixtures in the Premier League title race.
