Manchester City's last EPL home match was forced by Liverpool to a 1-1 draw, losing the top of the table, and the 23 consecutive home wins in all competitions have also been cut short, failing to equal the longest home winning streak of any English top flight team, which was set by Newland in 1892. The "Blue Moon" has not been able to gain an advantage over the traditional "Big 6" teams in the EPL this season, making it difficult for them to defend their title.
Manchester City has lost points in 2 consecutive EPL draws against the giants Chelsea and Liverpool, and the defeat against Arsenal in October means that since the beginning of the season, the "Blue Moon" has only won against the traditional "Big 6" against Manchester United, who are not the same as they used to be, and have lost their advantage over the rivals in the past.
