The Premier League champions thrashed Luton 5-1 on Saturday to sit on top of the table for the first time since November and there they remain after both Liverpool and Arsenal lost yesterday.
It still leaves little margin for error with just six league games left for each team and all of them involved in European competition as well. City added two late goals against Luton to add gloss to their scoreline - as well as improve their goal difference and Guardiola commented after the game how strong Liverpool and Arsenal are at finishing matches. Even with their two from Saturday, City have scored 14 in the final 10 minutes of matches this season but conceded eight; the records of Arsenal (15-5) and Liverpool (19-3) are far superior.
