An EPL Almost-Win for Manchester City
City's win gave them 3 crucial points and now puts them one point ahead of Arsenal propelling them to the top of Premier League Standings. As things stand, Man City still have one game in hand and may as well have already won the EPL 2022-23, given that they win that match and Arsenal loses all of their upcoming matches.

Manchester United went on to beat Aston Villa 1-0 in EPL GW 34, securing three additional points, in a ploy to ensure they end up in the top four of the EPL this season. United were put ahead by a Bruno Fernandes strike in the 39th minute.
