On the final day, City face Brighton away, while Liverpool host Wolves, and Guardiola is not taking anything for granted.“One game left and we’ll try,” said. “It is now 95 points and we need one more victory.“We’ll go to Brighton trying. I don’t have to say anything to the players because they are mature.“Brighton will be tough. They went to Arsenal and got a result. We played them in the FA Cup and that was tough because they are strong, have the set pieces, and I know they’re playing for pride.“But it’s in our hands. We were seven points behind and never gave up. We won 13 games in a row and that’s why we are in that position.”
