Manchester United's top-four fight, Man City's title battle: Predict final Premier League table

Once this current international break reaches its conclusion, it will full steam ahead until the end of the Premier League season.

With nine games left to play for most clubs (more and less for some), we are set for a gripping and enthralling run to the finish line. The title race between Manchester City and Liverpool is set to go right down to the wire, as is the battle for the final Champions League berth, with Manchester United hoping not to lose too much ground on Arsenal.

Currently, City occupy top spot ahead of Liverpool by just a point. The Merseyside outfit won their game in hand against Arsenal last Wednesday evening and are now right on City's heels with each side still having nine games left.

United, meanwhile, have lost ground in the race for the top-four after a run of just one win in their last three games. They are currently sixth in the table and and are four points behind fourth-placed Arsenal, who still have a game in hand on Ralf Rangnick's troops.

United have nine cup finals remaining in their quest to achieve Champions League football for next season and upcoming clashes with Leicester City, Everton and Norwich City are must-win fixtures. Whilst Arsenal still have a game in hand, Tottenham Hotspur have discovered some form in recent weeks and are now a place and point ahead of United, meaning the battle for fourth-place looks like it will go right down to the wire.

Whilst the races for the title and European football look as though they could produce some highly entertaining moments, the battle to avoid relegation to the Championship also looks like it could be gripping. Everton and Leeds United are still hoping to avoid the drop, whilst Norwich City and Burnley face uphill struggles to survive.

But how will the final table look when referees blow their whistles for the final time this season on May 22? It is impossible to predict, but you can give it a go using the Manchester Evening News' very own predictor below. Simply enter what you think the results will be for the remaining matches to see how the table will look come the end of the season.
