Manchester City (Man City), led by Pep Guardiola (52), is seriously looking to win. 5 points behind 1st place Arsenal, having played 2 games less. Here, Guardiola’s special record made Arsenal’s English Premier League (EPL) victory a bubble.
Arsenal drew 3-3 with Southampton in the 2022-2023 EPL round 32 home game held at Emirates Stadium in London, England on the 22nd (Korean time).
It was a game that clearly showed Arsenal’s poor performance recently. It was dragged to 1-3 until the 25th minute of the second half, and if it weren’t for the consecutive goals of Martin Odegard and Granit Saka, who burst right before the end of the game, they would not have been able to add a single point.먹튀검증
It’s already 3 games in a row without a win. Arsenal, who drew 2-2 with Liverpool and West Ham United respectively in the last two games, only added one point on this day. As Arsenal recorded 23 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses (75 points), Manchester City, who had 22 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses (70 points), could sit still and win on their own.
Moreover, the fearsome hindsight that Guardiola has shown in the league over the past six seasons has made Arsenal’s EPL victory even more bleak. Coach Guardiola showed a high win rate in the last 10 EPL matches after taking charge of Manchester City in the 2016-2017 season. From the 2017-2018 season, his second year, Man City has won four titles in five seasons, with at least seven wins in the last ten matches. In particular, in the 2018-2019 season, he won all 10 games and won Liverpool by 1 point with 98 points.
Man City, which has been on the rise with 8 wins and 1 draw in the last 9 matches, has no matches against strong teams except for Arsenal and Chelsea in the remaining 8 matches, so the chances of winning are higher than ever. The American statistics media Five Six Eight also raised Manchester City’s chance of winning to 75% after Arsenal’s draw against Southampton.
Arsenal, which is aiming for its first championship in 19 years after the 2003-2004 season, needs a reversal of the atmosphere. Fortunately for Arsenal, all other competitions are eliminated, so you can focus only on the league. Unlike Arsenal, Manchester City are at a disadvantage in their schedule as they are aiming to win the club’s first tournament by reaching the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League.
