The Emirates Stadium has never experienced a trophy lift before in the men\u2019s game outside of the Emirates Cup.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">FA Cups have been won at Wembley, but never has an Arsene Wenger, Unai Emery, or Mikel Arteta team lifted major silverware in their home. The reality for the Gunners is that this still remains an unlikely reality to occur.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">But it could still happen. Manchester City host Crystal Palace on Wednesday night, knowing they can prevent Arsenal from winning the league at their own ground with a victory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">FOLLOW OUR ARSENAL FB PAGE! <a aria-label=\"Latest Gunners news, analysis and much more via our dedicated Facebook pageLink opens in a new tab.\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AFCFootball.London#\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"_blank\">Latest Gunners news, analysis and much more via our dedicated Facebook page<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Arsenal are five points clear of Man City, but Pep Guardiola\u2019s side can close that to just two with a win over Oliver Glasner\u2019s team. This will then, with two games left to play, leave Arsenal needing to either win their final two games, or beat Burnley on Monday and then hope Bournemouth earn either a win or a draw on Tuesday night when The Cherries host City, which would then confirm Arsenal as champions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">For Arsenal to lift the title on Monday night by beating Burnley, it would have to be Crystal Palace who take points off City on Wednesday night. Either a draw or a defeat to Palace would be sufficient because Arsenal beating Burnley with only two games to go leaves City too far away to overtake them with what remains.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Yet, as mentioned, City are overwhelming favourites to beat Palace. Glasner has already made reference to frustrations that he might rotate against one or both sides because they have a European final to play.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s just necessary in such a long season,\u201d Glasner said. \u201cI saw the players today and what really impressed me massively is in the last league round, against Everton, in every physical data in the Premier League we were top three in this round. Just playing three days after Shakhtar with more or less the same team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">\u201cIt just shows what an incredibly well-shaped the players are in physically. After your question, I had a look at my payslip to see if we get some money from Arsenal or City. I couldn\u2019t find it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m responsible for Crystal Palace, not for Arsenal and for City. I just got the confirmation. This is what we always do. We always think what is best for us. I think this is my and our responsibility, and I think our influence on the title race will definitely be less than VAR.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Find the best flight and Budapest hotel deals with Booking.com<\/p>\n<p>This article contains affiliate links, we will receive a commission on any sales we generate from it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.football.london\/affiliates\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Learn more<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Content Image\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/0_Untitled-4jpeg.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Various Prices<\/p>\n<p>Booking.com<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"AffiliateContent_content-buy-btn__xWiVO buy-btn\" aria-label=\"Buy button\" href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com?id=76202X1561092&amp;xs=1&amp;xcust=Regionals-football.london&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.booking.com%2Findex.en-gb.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Book here<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Arsenal have booked their place in the Champions League final and fans can support the team in Budapest with a flight and hotel deal from Booking.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arsenal can win the title next week if Manchester City slip up against Crystal Palace on Wednesday night&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":640791,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[276695,276696,1084,187661,403,99],"class_list":["post-640790","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-arsenal-vs-burnley","tag-manchester-city-vs-crystal-palace","tag-premier-league","tag-premier-league-title-race","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/640790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=640790"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/640790\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/640791"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=640790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=640790"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=640790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
