The Premier League title race is officially going down to the wire.
After Liverpool came from behind to beat Southampton on Tuesday evening, Manchester City must now win on the final day of the season to guarantee a fourth title victory in five years. However, anything but three points against Aston Villa will leave their fate in the hands of Jurgen Klopp's side.
If the majority of City fans had got their way, then this situation would not have happened. Rather than endure the pressure and anxiety of a must-win game against a side managed by a Liverpool legend, plenty of Blues would have happily seen Southampton do them a favour and hand the title to City without Pep Guardiola's side having to kick a ball.
