MANCHESTER, England — Manchester City is closing in on another Premier League title. Manchester United is increasingly unlikely to even make the top four. An 11th straight victory in the league moved City one point above Liverpool with three games left this season in its bid to become the first team to retain the trophy since United in 2009. City will win the league with victories its last three games — against Burnley, Leicester and Brighton. City has bounced back from its agonizing Champions League elimination by Tottenham last week with successive wins over Spurs and United, taking the team’s run of league victories to 11.
