The Manchester City coach is remaining cautious despite being in the driving seat for the Premier League title

Pep Guardiola, despite Manchester City's recent surge in the Premier League, refuses to discount Liverpool from the title race, citing the unpredictability of football.

City's Pursuit of the Title

Guardiola emphasised the importance of Manchester City maintaining their winning momentum to secure their fourth Premier League title. Following their 4-0 victory over Brighton, City closed the gap to just one point behind league leaders Arsenal, with a crucial game in hand.

Both Arsenal and Liverpool have stumbled in April, dropping points unexpectedly. Despite City's strong form during this period in past seasons, Guardiola remains wary of potential setbacks for his team and Arsenal in the remaining fixtures.

Guardiola's Warning

The Manchester City manager cautioned against complacency, highlighting Liverpool's recent back-to-back defeats as a reminder of the volatility of football. Guardiola stressed the need for his side to remain focused and determined in the title race.

With five Premier League games remaining, Guardiola acknowledged the slim margins separating the top teams. He emphasised the necessity for City to win every remaining fixture to maintain their title challenge and stay ahead in the fiercely contested race.

What next for Manchester City?

Despite City's strong position, Guardiola remains cautious and focused on the challenges ahead. He emphasised the need for consistent performance in the remaining fixtures to ensure City's bid for the Premier League title remains on track.
