<h2><a href="https://www.naijanews.com/2024/03/11/carlo-ancelotti-reveals-difference-between-premier-league-and-la-liga/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The 2023-2024 Premier League season</a> has reached an advanced stage and the clear title contenders - Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester City - have been confirmed.</h2>
<p>There are just ten more games for the 2023-2024 Premier League season to end, and the race for the title is getting as intense as expected.</p>
<p>Presently, Arsenal are topping the table with 64 points in 28 games, seven goals above second-placed Liverpool who have the same number of points as the Gunners.</p>
<p>Manchester City, the reigning Premier League champions, who are aiming to win a record 4 league title in a row, are currently placed third, with just a point below first and second-placed Arsenal and Liverpool.</p>
<p>Among the remaining 10 Premier League games left for Arsenal, their most tricky fixture is against their London rivals, Chelsea, which will take place on a yet-to-be-determined date.</p>
<p>The Gunners must win all their remaining games but the game they are expected to do all it takes to win is against their title rivals, Manchester City on March 31. They must use the game to prove their title credential this season.</p>

<p>As for Liverpool, they have three tricky games which are against Manchester United, Brighton, and Tottenham. Their meetings against these three teams are always difficult to predict. Hence, if they can win those games, they will remain in contention for the title until the season ends.</p>
