Premier League era

The Premier League was launched in 1992 and has gone on to become the most popular football league in the world.

It has been dominated by Manchester United, which won 13 titles in the first 20 years of the league under managerial great Alex Ferguson.

It was that unprecedented run that saw United overtake Liverpool's previous English record of 18 titles. But United hasn't been crowned champion since Ferguson lifted the trophy in his final season in 2013 and retired.

Liverpool ended a 30-year wait for the title in 2020 - its first of the Premier League era - and has now added a second to match United's 20 league crowns overall.

Abu Dhabi-backed City has won eight Premier League titles - including six in seven years under Pep Guardiola and an unprecedented four in a row.

Chelsea, under the ownership of Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, won five.

Arsenal, which looks like finishing runner-up for the third year in a row, has won three. If Arsenal finishes second it would be a record-extending ninth time it has been runner-up in the Premier League. United is next on that list with seven second-placed finishes.

Blackburn and Leicester have won one Premier League title each.
