Manchester City moved to the Premier League summit with a 5-1 win over Luton on Saturday and were handed a further advantage in the title race when Liverpool and Arsenal suffered surprise defeats on Sunday.
City sit two points clear, but with that margin separating three teams it remains the tightest title race at this stage of a season since 1998-99.
"What it means for the title race, I am not dumb. The answer is pretty easy," said Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp after his side's 1-0 defeat by Crystal Palace at Anfield.
Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice insisted he did not watch or even know the Liverpool score before the Gunners were beaten 2-0 by Aston Villa later on Sunday.
"I still think there will be plenty more twists and turns to go," Rice added.
"We're in a three-horse title race with two unbelievable sides but, as you've seen with other results today, the Premier League can throw up anything.
"Six finals to go in the Premier League and we'll give it everything."
Man City now firm favourites
Opta, with its 10,000 'supercomputer' simulations, believes Manchester City's dressing room is the place to be.
Following their rivals' defeats, City are rated as having a 70.1% chance of lifting the trophy for a fourth time in a row.

"From what was a very strong position for Rangers, it becomes a very strong position for Celtic" - all thanks to one historic afternoon in Dingwall.
Former Scotland striker John Robertson was responding to Ross County's first-ever win over their visitors from Glasgow.
Philippe Clement's Rangers headed to the Highlands with their eyes on maximum points from their two games in hand. They knew that winning Sunday's game and Wednesday's match at Dundee would take them top of the Scottish Premiership again by two points.
Instead, a 3-2 defeat leaves Rangers four adrift of the reigning champions and with games fast running out to overhaul their city rivals.
It now looks like Rangers will have to win the final Old Firm derby of the season - having already failed to beat Celtic on three occasions this season - to have any chance of a 56th Scottish title. And do so at Celtic Park.
Worst defensive display under Clement?
Then-leaders Rangers were let off the hook in early March when their last domestic slip-up, a home defeat by Motherwell, was followed the next day by Heart of Midlothian's victory over Celtic.
However, the warning signs were possibly there that Rangers' previous 11-game winning run masked an element of fragility.
Clement's side earned another reprieve last weekend when they gifted Celtic a 2-0 lead and also came from 3-2 behind to earn a draw that kept them a point behind but with a game in hand.

Andy Robertson insisted Liverpool will "keep fighting" despite their Premier League title hopes suffering a huge blow as they fell to a 1-0 defeat by Crystal Palace at Anfield.
Eberechi Eze converted from Tyrick Mitchell's cut-back to finish off a flowing Palace move early on and the visitors were deservedly in front at the break.
Jurgen Klopp's Reds ramped up the pressure in the second half but, just as in recent games against Manchester United and Atalanta, their finishing let them down as they lost at home in the league for the first time since October 2022.
Defeat leaves Liverpool two points behind leaders Manchester City and level on points with Arsenal, who were beaten 2-0 by Aston Villa in Sunday's late kick-off.
"I think we are always still in it. We are still there," Liverpool full-back Robertson told Sky Sports. "We will keep fighting, keep going to the end, and let's see where it gets us.
"With six games to go we will give it everything we have got. The problem is there's two world-class teams doing it as well and that's the difficult part."
Palace started brightly and led through Eze's well-worked opener, before a slip from Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk gave Jean-Philippe Mateta a golden opportunity to double their lead.
The striker was clean through and lifted his effort past the returning Alisson Becker but Scotland skipper Robertson sprinted back to hook the ball off the line.
Liverpool rallied and Wataru Endo struck the bar after Palace failed to deal with a corner before Dean Henderson made a fine reaction save to deny Luis Diaz.
Oliver Glasner's Palace retained a threat on the counter-attack until the break but were largely penned inside their own half in the second 45 minutes.
Henderson made another superb stop from Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota's close-range effort was blocked by Nathaniel Clyne with the goalkeeper nowhere to be seen and Curtis Jones somehow sliced wide when through on goal.

Masters 2024 final leaderboard
-11 Scheffler (US); -7 Aberg (Swe); -4 Morikawa (US), Homa (US), Fleetwood (Eng); -2 DeChambeau (US), Smith (Aus)
Selected others: E Hatton (Eng), +4 McIlroy (NI), Fitzpatrick (Eng); +9 Rahm (Spa), Willett (Eng); +16 Woods (US)
World number one Scottie Scheffler won the Masters for a second time after a commanding performance at Augusta National demonstrated why he was the red-hot pre-tournament favourite.
Scheffler, who led overnight by a shot, hit a four-under 68 in Sunday's final round to finish four clear on 11 under.
Sweden's Ludvig Aberg shot 69 to finish runner-up on his major debut.
England's Tommy Fleetwood (69) ended joint third with American pair Collin Morikawa (74) and Max Homa (73).
Fleetwood put together an impressive round to make a late charge up the leaderboard and record his best finish at the Masters.
But catching Scheffler was out of reach. The 27-year-old American showed rare emotion on the 18th green as he received the acclaim of the Augusta patrons after wrapping up his second Masters victory in three years.
There had been a possibility the 2022 champion might not even play the final round.
Scheffler's wife Meredith is due to give birth to their first child and the Texan said on Saturday he was prepared to leave Augusta mid-round if she went into labour on Sunday.
Addressing his wife during the Green Jacket presentation ceremony, Scheffler said: "I love you and I'm coming home. I'll be home as quick as I can."
He added: "I can't put into words what it is like to win here again and what it will be like to become a father for the first time."

We are well aware of the issues and they will be addressed in the coming weeks.
There is a very definite and positive change on the horizon.

1 hour ago, NoshowJones said:I have no qualms about using any overhead lockers, it does not have to be above my seat as long as it is not away up at the other end of the plane but if there is no space and there are peoples clothes and bags of things they have maybe bought at the airport, then yes I will move them to make way for my case.
Well, good luck with that attitude. You start that and expect to be put in your place by other passengers or probably by the cabin crew when the ruckus starts, they have the authority to remove you and your bag. from the plane if you cause problems, no matter how right you think you are.

Ireland's Conor McGregor will return after almost three years out against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 in Las Vegas on 29 June.
Former two-weight champion McGregor, 35, has not fought since July 2021 and has lost his past two fights.
The UFC confirmed the welterweight bout with American Chandler following UFC 300 in Las Vegas on Saturday.
McGregor has 22 wins and six defeats in his MMA career, while 37-year-old Chandler is 23-8.
McGregor broke a leg in defeat by Poirier in his most recent fight in July 2021. He also lost to Poirier by second-round stoppage six months earlier.
McGregor has won only once since becoming the UFC's first simultaneous two-weight champion - at lightweight and featherweight - in 2016.
Chandler has been involved in some thrilling fights since moving from Bellator to the UFC in 2021, despite losing three of his five bouts.
He lost to then champion Charles Oliveira in his second UFC fight before defeats by Justin Gaethje and Poirier.
The McGregor-Chandler match-up was confirmed but no set date early last year, when they were opposing coaches in the UFC's Ultimate Fighter reality TV series.

Alexander Isak's rich goalscoring form at St James' Park continued as Newcastle beat Tottenham to boost their hopes of European football next season.
Isak produced two clinical finishes to score in each half as he netted on home turf for the sixth consecutive match.
The striker now has 17 goals in 24 Premier League appearances this season.
Anthony Gordan and Fabian Schar were also on target for the Magpies, while Timo Werner had two chances for Spurs but his finishing let him down.
Newcastle's emphatic victory lifted them up to sixth in the table - above Manchester United, who drew 2-2 with Bournemouth, on goal difference.
Spurs dropped to fifth, below Aston Villa on goal difference.
Isak the latest in lineage of Newcastle strikers
From Alan Shearer and Andrew Cole to Malcolm Macdonald and Jackie Milburn, Newcastle's fans have long held a special affinity for a goalscoring striker.
Isak may have the number 14 emblazoned on the back of his shirt, but the Sweden striker is cut from the same cloth as names typically associated with the fabled number nine.

The over head lockers are there for all passengers; they are not assigned by seat. You or anyone can use whatever is available. If you want to be sure to get one near to where you are sat, ensure you board early, as there is more chance of using one further away if you are late.

It's all or nothing for Manchester United's season when they play their Women's FA Cup semi-final on Sunday - but why has their campaign been such a disappointment so far?
Marc Skinner's side exceeded many people's expectations in 2022-23 by finishing runners-up in the Women's Super League after challenging for the title until the final day, and qualifying for the Champions League for the first time.
This season, however, they are fourth - 15 points behind leaders Manchester City with four games to go - and look unlikely to catch third-placed Arsenal and make it back into Europe.
It's not just United's results that have been underwhelming, it's some of their performances as well.
I wanted to explore why, so I started thinking about why they were so effective last year, and looking at how good they are at the same things now.
Why are they conceding more goals?
The most obvious area where United have dropped off since last season is at the back.
They are still scoring an average of more than two goals in every WSL game, but the rate at which they are conceding has more than doubled - from 0.55 goals per game, to 1.28.

When Jim Miller walks out at a sold out T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to face Bobby Green at UFC 300 on Saturday, he will set a unique record.
The American lightweight is the only athlete who also fought at the UFC's landmark 100 and 200 events.
The 40-year-old was victorious at both, beating Mac Danzig in 2009 and Takanori Gomi in 2016.
When Miller faced the press at the pre-fight media conference, he sported a commemorative UFC 100 jacket to celebrate his achievement.
"This is the first time I've ever worn it. I pulled it out of the closet, there's still dog hair on it. It's been in the closet for 15 years and I was like 'do you know what, this is the week to bring this out'," said Miller.
"Funnily enough, all the fighters are getting a UFC 300 jacket. But nobody else on the card has got this puppy."
Miller debuted in the UFC in 2008 and holds the record for the most fights in the organisation at 43 and the most wins, totalling 26.
What makes Miller's longevity more remarkable is that before UFC 200, he was having doubts if he would make it to the event.
Miller was suffering from Lyme disease - a condition caught from tick bites with symptoms including tiredness and loss of energy.
"When I first started talking about [UFC 300] I was like 'OK, maybe I'll drag myself to that card', because that's what I was doing for 200 - I was having a really rough time," said Miller.
"I feel I have four parts to my career - the prelim career, Lyme disease, coming out of Lyme and figuring out how to make this work being over 35. And now I've figured it out and got the right people around me."
Miller has never fought for a title during his 16-year UFC career but championships will not define his legacy.
