Robbie Savage explains why he is still backing Man City to beat Liverpool to the title

The gap is down to one point, and it's been that close for four years in the Premier League.

Since 2018-19, Manchester City and Liverpoo l have each played 143 Premier League games – City have taken 335 points and Liverpool 334. That tells you we are watching two of the greatest teams ever put together in English football.

I'm going to stick with my prediction of City to win the title, because it will stay in their hands even if they only draw the potential decider at the Etihad on April 10. But it's a stunning statistic, especially when you consider Chelsea have taken 264 points over the same period and Manchester United 256 – a staggering 79 points fewer than City, roughly 20 points per season difference.
