However, at one point, the Cityzens were trailing behind 2 goals which added more drama to the title race as Liverpool had a glimmer of hope. The Reds, on the other hand, were also battling their own nemesis as Wolves had them deadlocked at 1-1 for majority of the game.
However, Manchester City came back from the ashes to score 3 goals against Villa in the last 15 minutes of the game to seal the title race. As a result, City won the 2021-22 Premier League with just a single point lead over their rivals Liverpool.

The 2019-20 season marked Liverpool winning their first league title since 1990, the club's first of the Premier League era. The Reds had clinched the crown for 2019-20 after their 4-0 victory over Crystal Palace at Anfield on 24th June, 2020. This left Manchester City needing a win against Chelsea the following day. But on 25th June 2020, Manchester City lost 2–1 to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge which statistically confirmed Liverpool as champions earning their first league title in 30 years.
Manchester City entered the 2018-19 season as the defending champions and yet again managed to claim the 2018-19 league title on the final day of the season with a 4-1 away win over Brighton, finishing on 98 points after a run of 14 wins. There was only a point difference as Liverpool finished runners up with 97 points. After Glenn Murray’s opener, Sergio Aguero levelled proceedings shortly before Aymeric Laporte put the visitors in the lead before half-time. The three points were wrapped up just after the hour mark, with Riyad Mahrez firing a thunderous shot past Mat Ryan to guarantee City the win – and the title. To put the cherry on top for Guardiola and his players, Ilkay Gundogan made it four with a stunning free-kick.
The 2017-18 season started on 11th August, 2017 and concluded on 13th May, 2018. Manchester City won their third Premier League title, and fifth English top-flight title overall, with five games to spare.
