United, under the management of Ferguson, won the Premier League 3 times in a row, the 1998-1999, 1999-2000 and 2000-2001 seasons, then repeated the same feat and crowned the title in the 2006-2007 seasons, 2007-2008 and 2008-2009. Pep was close to equalizing Ferguson’s achievement in the 2019-20 season when he won the title in the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 seasons and then lost the chance to catch Ferguson in the third season , to crown Jürgen Klopp with Liverpool with his only title.

title on the way
Manchester City have 3 matches left by the end of the competition, they only need to win one match to announce their crowning of the title, or to draw in just two matches and lose the third, and in this case it will be equal to Arsenal in points if the latter wins the last two matches, but goal difference and then direct confrontations crown the celestial team of the title.

In the 1998-99 season, Manchester United won the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup, and no other English team before or after has managed to achieve the same feat. Manchester City are on the verge of winning the Premier League title, have reached the FA Cup final and have a positive result in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals at Real Madrid, with a draw 1 -1, to gain an advantage in the second leg at home, to come close to reaching the final for the second time in their history.
