Manchester City’s Premier League fate may no longer be in their hands, but the Citizens will fight until the final whistle. With two points separating them from Arsenal in the standings, just two matchdays remain in the season. On Tuesday evening, Pep Guardiola’s side will face Bournemouth in a must-win clash to keep their title hopes alive ahead of the season finale against Aston Villa.
