Manchester City showed no mercy against Luton, beating them 5-1 at the Etihad to become the new leader of the Premier League. Despite having the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid in a few days, Pep Guardiola fielded most of his players, and it paid off.
Luck was on the side of the Citizens, who took the lead with a goal against Daiki Hashioka after a shot by Erling Haaland (2′). Mateo Kovacic scored a superb goal when he fired in a first-time pass from Julián Álvarez (64′), while Haaland scored the third from the penalty spot (76′). Ross Barkley pulled one back for Luton, but Jerémy Doku rounded two defenders (87′), and Josko Gvardiol slammed home at the near post (90+3′) to put the home side’s party to bed.
City reached 73 points and has a two-point lead over Arsenal and Liverpool, while Luton is 18th with 25 and is losing the category by one point.

It is probably the worst moment of the season for Liverpool. After losing 0-3 at home to Atalanta in the Europa League, the Reds suffered another setback at Anfield, losing 0-1 to Crystal Palace and falling to third place in the Premier League, when two matchdays ago they were at the top of the league.
The only goal of the game was by Eberechi Eze, who only had to push in a cross from the left by Tyrick Mitchell after 14 minutes. The Reds had clear chances, but goalkeeper Dean Henderson kept everything out of his net. More than 20 shots were not enough for the home club.
Klopp’s side have gone three games without a win and now depend on City and Arsenal losing points to become English champions. On the other hand, the Eagles got three important points in the fight against relegation, as they climbed to 14th place with 33 units.

Arsenal played knowing the results of Manchester City and Liverpool but did not take advantage of it and instead disappointed their fans by losing 0-2 at home to Aston Villa.
The Gunners tried hard, especially in the first half, but could not overcome the resistance of their former goalkeeper, Dibu Martinez. In the second half, the team fell apart in the last minutes.
First, it was Leon Bailey, in the 84th minute, who finished off a cross from the left by Lucas Digne to make the score 0-1, while Ollie Watkins put the second in the 87th minute in an accurate counter-attack where he ran in on goal and shot the ball past goalkeeper David Raya.
The Londoners, who have a good goal difference in their favor, are second with 71 points, so now the leader is City. Aston Villa is fourth with 63 points and is securing a place in the next Champions League.
