That draw leaves them three points behind City with three matches remaining.

Aston Villa have little more than pride to play for in their final four games, but they did manage to secure a comfortable 3-1 victory at Burnley on Saturday, which ended the Lancastrians’ recent winning run.

And despite not having any hopes of European football or worries about relegation, Gerrard’s men could realistically still finish as high as eighth or as low as 16th.

They could also play the role of kingmakers in the title race, with a match away at Man City to come on the final day of the season.
