Manchester City took the lead in the Premier League title race with a 1-0 victory over Burnley. Arsenal and City are currently level on 70 points, with the same number of wins and losses and the same goal difference.<\/p>\n
City lead purely on points (66-63), but they won’t play another league game until May 4, when they face Southampton in the FA Cup semi-final.

verdict<\/h3>\n
If these results are repeated, which is unlikely, Arsenal will lift the Premier League trophy aloft, but only after a nail-biting showdown on the final day. The Gunners came from behind to win all five of their remaining rivals, but City won four of their five games, losing only to Villa, who visit the Etihad on the final day.<\/p>\n
