But the league gets back underway in a big way over Easter weekend as league leaders Arsenal visit City in a match that could have massive implications for the title race.
The teams were in a similar situation last season, with City eventually overtaking the Gunners to win their third consecutive league title.
While the circumstances are a bit different this season with Liverpool also involved, the importance of the March 31 match at Etihad Stadium cannot be understated.
Retired Brazilian attacker Rivaldo, who won countless domestic titles and a Champions League across a career that spanned more than two decades, says that the City vs. Arsenal match is a huge one — but it won't necessarily define the title race.
"I'm already looking forward to Man City v Arsenal on Easter Sunday," Rivaldo told Betfair. "It's a key game, as we say, it's a six-point game. If you win, you have a big advantage in the title race.
"City know what it takes to win the title because they have done it for the last two seasons. They have experience in situations like this at the business end of the season.
"It's a game that Arsenal cannot lose, they need at least a draw and stay ahead of City. But even afterwards there will still be plenty of matches to go. Despite it being a key game, it will not decide the title race. There are still a lot of things left to happen in the Premier league this season."
