Victory will ensure Pep Guardiola's team become the first men’s clubside in English football history to win the top-flight for four years in a row.

City — on 88 points — are two points clear at the top, but if they fail to dispatch West Ham, Arsenal will lift the title if they beat Everton at Emirates Stadium.

Anything other than an Arsenal win will hand City the title. The Gunners are the underdogs - no team has come from second to win the EPL title on the final day.

The Opta Supercomputer certainly thinks City will earn three points on Sunday, May 19.

The defending champions are still favourites with the Opta supercomputer to retain their title.
