They hold a five-point advantage over the champions following their 3-0 win over Fulham.

And while Pep Guardiola’s men are forecast to close the gap a little, they are not expected to seal a fifth league title in six seasons.

At the other end, Bournemouth, Everton and Southampton are projected to go down.

That is despite all three teams avoiding defeat at the weekend, with Bournemouth beating Liverpool, Everton beating Brentford and Southampton drawing with Man Utd.
