The English Premier League schedule picks up for Boxing Day on Thursday to start off the busy holiday period after Christmas Day and on December 26 there are plenty of great matches on the schedule, including Manchester City taking on table leaders Liverpool and some other games includes Arsenal and West Ham United as well as Chelsea, Everton, Aston Villa and Tottenham in action.
Hull City is taking on Manchester United at the Kingston Communications Stadium for the early game on Thursday, while Aston Villa and Crystal Palace will be in the next batch of later matches. The league is in action on Thursday before more matches over the weekend and Chelsea has a big match with Swansea City after Arsenal and the Blues played to a scoreless draw on Monday. That match kept Liverpool in first place on the table and other matches includes Cardiff City and Southampton, Everton taking on Sunderland at Goodison Park, while Newcastle United plays against Stoke City at St. James Park.
Norwich City and Fulham at Carrow Road and Tottenham will be hosting West Bromwich at White Hart Lane and that will be a big match for Tim Sherwood as the Spurs are coming off of a solid win in their last match. The biggest match of the day is the late match with Manchester City hosting the table leaders in Liverpool with super hot Luis Suarez, who had another two goals for the Reds in his last game and that match will be at Etihad Stadium on Saturday. The weekend matches coming up have some interesting matchups as well, including Chelsea taking on Liverpool, Tottenham playing Stoke City and also with Everton playing Southampton.
Arsenal and Chelsea had a scoreless draw on Monday to finish off the EPL play from the weekend at the Emirates and now Liverpool tops the table over the Gunners with their win over Cardiff City on Saturday and that was another showing for Luis Suarez, who now has a nice lead in scoring in the EPL. The matches on Thursday should be good ones and they will have an impact on the top of the table.
