There are 20 clubs in the Premier League. During the course of a season (from August to May) each club plays the others twice (a double round-robin system), once at their home stadium and once at that of their opponents, for 38 games.
Teams receive three points for a win and one point for a draw. No points are awarded for a loss. Teams are ranked by total points, then goal difference, and then goals scored. If still equal, teams are deemed to occupy the same position.
If there is a tie for the championship, for relegation, or for qualification to other competitions, the head-to-head record between the tied teams is taken into consideration (points scored in the matches between the teams, followed by away goals in those matches.) If two teams are still tied, a play-off match at a neutral venue decides rank.
The race for the Premier League title is getting intense with Manchester City closing in on Arsenal. Currently, Manchester City are just 2 points behind Arsenal.
Manchester City are in the driving seat and nothing can stop them. With the Premier League gradually coming to an end, let’s take a look at the remaining matches in the Premier League title run in.
