Joleon Lescott celebrates his winning goal at Aston Villa on Sunday

 

City 4-6 for title after
win at Villa Park

MANCHESTER CITY are 4-6 to win the Premier League after Joleon Lescott sent them back to the top of the table by scoring the only goal in a 1-0 win at Aston Villa.

Lescott’s second-half strike gave City their first win away in the
league for three months and restored City’s two-point advantage after Manchester United had usurped them by beating Liverpool 2-1 on Saturday.

City are clear favourites over 6-4 United as they look forward to home games against Blackburn and Bolton, whereas United face tough trips to Norwich and Tottenham.

Spurs, who are seven points behind City and
20-1 to lift the title, also travel to Arsenal before then.
