THE English Premier League will on Sunday at 4pm local time reach its final matchday with two teams (Arsenal and Manchester City) in with the chance of winning the title.
However, the advantage goes to Manchester City, who will be reliant on themselves to win the championship if they match the Gunners’ result.
Arsenal take on Everton, needing to win and hope for a slip-up from Manchester City in it’s encounter with West Ham.
City is aiming to become the first team in English football history to win four consecutive league titles.
The development has forced the organisers of the competition to have a trophy at each of the two stadiums.
The Premier League will have two identical trophies, one at the Emirates Stadium (Arsenal play ground) and the other at the Etihad Stadium (Manchester City arena), ready to crown this season’s champions, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal or Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.
The reigning champions normally keep the trophy for the season, and English Football Authority (FA) keep another replica at its London headquarters.
