If there was any doubt that the Premier League title race was going to go down to the wire then on Saturday Manchester City and Liverpool extinguished it.
Liverpool began the day with a 2-0 win at home against a plucky Watford who spurned a few clear opportunities to score. Jurgen Klopp's side were far from their best, but they showed their title credentials by getting the job done regardless to win a tenth league match in a row.
City responded in typical fashion however, a brilliant first-half display showcasing that not even the most defensively-minded teams could likely stand in their way. Goals from Kevin de Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan returned Pep Guardiola's side to the top of the table, meaning that City sit one point ahead of their title rivals before the pair meet at the Etihad Stadium next Sunday.
