Manchester City moved within two points of Premier League leaders Arsenal in a huge step towards a third title in a row as they thumped the Gunners 4-1. Following the result at the Etihad, we’re taking a look at the latest Man City title odds.  

It was the Kevin De Bruyne show in the biggest game of the season so far as the Belgian scored two and assisted one to help his side edge closer to the top of the table.

Story Of The Game

It took just seven minutes for Pep Guardiola’s side to get off to the perfect start as Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring with a wonderful strike. The latest Man City title odds were sure to be shortening by the minute.

Erling Haaland controlled the ball well in the middle and laid the ball off to De Bruyne who drove towards the Arsenal defence and guided the ball beyond Aaron Ramsdale.

Ramsdale was called into action on multiple occasions as the hosts continued to pile on the pressure. As City started to look even more threatening, just before half time they doubled their lead as John Stones headed home.

The England international met a pinpoint De Bruyne free-kick that was originally flagged offside. However after a lengthy VAR check the offside decision was overturned.

Guardiola’s men soon put the game to bed in the second-half. De Bruyne topped off his Man of the Match performance with another wonderful goal. Haaland slipped the Belgian through to claim another assist for the night, who finished cooly once again.

Rob Holding managed to get a consolation for the Gunners four minutes from time, and it was a well-taken goal.

After playing a part in the creating, Haaland had no intention of leaving without a goal himself. The Norwegian was slipped through by Phil Foden in injury time and he made no mistake in scoring his 49th goal of the season.

The game finished 4-1 to City who remain second and two points behind, but have two games in-hand on Arsenal. Take a look below at the latest Man City title odds.
