Manchester City Equal Man United's Premier League Record Of Three Titles In A Row /

Manchester City have become only the second club in Premier League history to win three consecutive titles.

Arsenal's defeat at Nottingham Forest on Saturday saw City crowned as champions of England for the seventh time during the EPL era.

City have now won the Premier League in 2011/12, 2013/14, 2017/18, 2018/19, 2020/21, 2021/22 and 2022/23.

Prior to City, rivals Manchester United had been the only team to win three in a row.

United won a hat-trick of EPL titles on two occasions - in 1998/99, 1999/00 and 2000/01, then again in 2006/07, 2007/08 and 2008/09.

The first team ever to become English champions three times in a row were Huddersfield Town in the 1920s.

Huddersfield won the old Football League First Division in 1923/24, 1924/25 and 1925/26 but they have not been champions of England again since.

Arsenal (1932/33, 1933/34 and 1934/35) and Liverpool (1981/82, 1982/83 and 1983/84) are the only other teams to have won three consecutive top-flight titles in English soccer.

No team has ever won four in a row.
