After round 37 of the Premier League, Man City leads the rankings with 95 points, 1 point more than second-placed Liverpool. The Citizens will successfully defend their championship title if they defeat Brighton in round 38. Meanwhile, Liverpool will host Wolverhampton at Anfield.
Recently, answering an interview with Sky Sports before round 38, Man City head coach - Pep Guardiola said: "The team is under pressure but that is easy. We are playing for something special, which is the Premier League title.
It is difficult to win this tournament once in a lifetime. The players have to feel the pressure, feel the tension to know how difficult things are.
When asked about the advice for his players before the final match, Coach Pep Guardiola replied: "The players should do what they have done in the past 2 seasons. Step onto the field, play enthusiastically, focus on all aspects and try to score as many goals as possible.
The upcoming match at Amex Stadium could be Man City's 14th consecutive win in the Premier League. The last team to beat them was Newcastle (January 29). That run of wins has seen them take the top spot from Liverpool. During that time, The Kop dropped points against Everton and Man United.
On this issue, Coach Pep Guardiola shared: "For a few weeks, the situation has been in our hands. That's what we want.
With Liverpool three points behind, people say it's better to chase them. But no, it's better to be the leader because everything will be within your reach.
We have won the last 13 matches so we are worthy of our current position. We will protect it.
With a beautiful long-range shot, centre-back Vincent Kompany brought Man City a 1-0 victory over Leicester in the most recent round. His contract with Man City will expire this summer. Coach Pep Guardiola hopes Kompany will continue to be with the team in the next season.
All 10 matches of round 38 of the Premier League, including the 2 decisive matches for the championship, Brighton - Man City and Liverpool - Wolverhampton, will take place at 9:00 p.m. on May 12, Vietnam time.
