It’s been tough going for much of the season but it looks like Manchester City finally have a hand on the Premier League title.
The recent victory at Goodison Park over Everton extended their winning streak to 11. It’s the sort of run that ensured they held off Liverpool during the 2018/19 and 2021/22 seasons and they now seem destined to pip Arsenal to the Premier League title in 2023.
Brighton’s emphatic victory over the Gunners means City have one hand on their third successive league title and their fifth in six years. If all goes to plan for Pep Guardiola, Citizens fans will be out in the streets celebrating yet another league title very soon.
Here’s what we know about their plans so far.
Sunday’s results have left City on the brink. One more victory will guarantee them the 2022/23 Premier League title.
Thus, the Citizens will be crowned champions should they beat Chelsea at the Etihad on Sunday, or if Arsenal are beaten at the City Ground by Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
City’s superior goal difference at the summit means two points from their final three games should be enough, but it’s surely not going to come to that.

If all goes to plan, City will be lifting the Premier League title at the Etihad on Sunday after their tussle with Frank Lampard’s Blues. Otherwise, their celebrations will be put on hold until the final day of the season away at Brentford even if they beat Brighton at the Amex next Thursday.
Those broadcasting Sunday’s game between City and Chelsea will almost certainly extend their stream to show Ilkay Gundogan lifting the Premier League title aloft. The club may also stream the celebrations on their official YouTube channel.
Sunday’s kick-off is 16:00 (BST), so it should end at approximately 17:50. If there’s a celebration to be had, expect a delay before the title is officially in Gundogan’s hands. It’s hard to give an exact time for when City’s title celebrations will begin, but they certainly won’t be too long after the full-time whistle.
