Manchester United finishing above rivals Liverpool in final Premier League table projections

Manchester City will win the Premier League title by 14 points according to a new projection for the rest of the season, with Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea making up the top-four.

The CIES Football Observatory's new findings place Pep Guardiola's side clear at the top, having not dropped a point in their last ten Premier League games.

Manchester United would finish second ahead of a languishing Liverpool, while Chelsea would pip out Leicester in a close fight for the Champions League places.
