LONDON • Manchester City will approach all their remaining Premier League matches like finals in a bid to stave off challengers Liverpool, manager Pep Guardiola said yesterday, adding that they must use their experience of negotiating close title races.
The English top-flight leaders, chasing their fourth title in five years, have collected 77 points from 32 matches for a one-point lead over a relentless Liverpool side looking to deny them backto-back league titles en route to an unprecedented quadruple.
Those factors mean his team have to develop a knockout mindset with six league games remaining for either side.
“Definitely. We can’t drop points but they can’t either,” Guardiola said ahead of today’s home game against 19th-placed Watford, who are locked in a battle to avoid relegation.
