Liverpool would have won the league with 91 points in 33 of the last 37 seasons

It is testament to just how good Manchester City are that Liverpool still trail them on 91 points with two games to go.

To put that into context, the Reds would have won the top-flight title in 33 of the previous 37 seasons with that haul.

It is, of course, still possible for Jurgen Klopp's side to win their last two games, finish on 97 points and still not win the league.

This year's title race has been widely regarded as the most exciting in a generation, given the quality of the top two teams and the prolonged neck-and-neck battle.

Of the four occasions which Liverpool's points tally would have one the league, only three were 38-game seasons.

Manchester United's 1994 Premier League win, spearheaded by 18 goals from Eric Cantona, was in the era of 42-game campaigns.

Chelsea feature twice on the list – firstly under Jose Mourinho and then Antonio Conte. In 2005 they returned their highest points total with 95 before coming in just two points shy two years ago with the Italian at the helm.

Manchester City, meanwhile, appear to have picked up where they left off last season.

Last year saw the first team to notch a century when Pep Guardiola's men stormed away with the title.

And while they will fall two points short of that if they win their last two games, it would still be the second-highest winning total of all time – behind their own record set last term.
