  1. Manchester City sit three points behind leaders Arsenal with a game in hand.
  2. The legendary striker believes City’s “never forgive” mentality will be the deciding factor as the pressure mounts on Mikel Arteta’s squad.
  3. With only five Premier League games left for City, including a tricky trip to Everton on May 4, Aguero insists that a flawless run-in is expected from Pep Guardiola’s side.

Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero has tipped his former club to win all of their remaining games and win this season’s Premier League title.

The Premier League title race has reached a fever pitch as Arsenal lead the way with 73 points from 34 matches, but City are breathing down their necks on 70 points with a game in hand.

The momentum shifted significantly on April 19, when City secured a vital 2-1 win over the North Londoners – a result that Sergio Aguero believes has planted seeds of doubt in the Arsenal dressing room.

City’s path to the trophy involves a relentless May schedule, featuring fixtures against Everton, Brentford, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and a final-day clash with Aston Villa.

Meanwhile, Arsenal must navigate a London derby against Fulham and a trip to face West Ham. And for Aguero, who famously clinched City’s first Premier League title in 2012, the psychological battle at the top is where this season will be won or lost.

“City never forgive”: Aguero on the mental battle of the Premier League title race

Now, speaking to Stake, Sergio Aguero has tipped Pep Guardiola and his players to win all of their remaining matches this season, and end the campaign as Premier League champions once again.

“I think [Manchester City win all their remaining games]. Knowing the club and Pep [Guardiola], I don’t think City will drop any points,” Aguero said.

“In the head of City they know that at some point Arsenal can lose or draw, and that’s enough – as long as City win everything.”

Looking over to the Arsenal side of things, Aguero admitted his belief that Mikel Arteta and his squad of players are “under huge pressure” and are facing a Manchester City side who “never forgive”.

“I don’t know if it’s that bad, but Arsenal are under huge pressure. They are top of the table and it’s been many years since Arsenal last won the Premier League. Every team plays against them with extra motivation, and behind them is City who never forgive,” said Aguero.

The former Argentina international striker continued, “There is a lot of anxiety and nerves. Sometimes when you want to do everything right you end up making mistakes. It’s normal – players want to do things perfectly and mentally they go faster than the game.

“I think it’s mostly mental. Arsenal play well; the only thing weighing on them is being at the top. Everything depends on Arteta’s experience from his time at City and the communication he can have with the players to help Arsenal become champions.

“They have to think game by game.”

What is coming next in the Premier League title race?

Sergio Aguero’s comments highlight the anxiety and nerves that typically define a title run-in, especially for a side like Arsenal who are seeking their first league title in over two decades.

If Manchester City successfully navigate their game in hand, the two sides could be level on points, potentially moving the title race to Goal Difference or even Goals Scored.

The next major milestone for City comes at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, as David Moyes’ players go in search of a mammoth victory that could put themselves one step closer to qualification for European football in 2026/27.
