Rodri has warned one slip-up could end Manchester City's dreams of creating Premier League history.
A fourth consecutive league title would make Pep Guardiola's side the most successful team ever and victory against Arsenal on Sunday would mean they leapfrog the Gunners in the tightest three-way race for years.
But midfielder Rodri, who is renowned for his emotional speeches in the City dressing room, warned defeat could all but end their hopes.
'It's not just this game that's like a final, it's all of them until the end of the season,' said the Spaniard.
