The English Premier League has Chelsea on the top of the table as the schedule picks back up and the Blues are first in the EPL standings over Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Southampton and Tottenham as the final stretch begins for the Barclays title.
Chelsea comes in leading Arsenal and they also have some games in hand and if they can keep from a collapse, the title is likely theirs. Chelsea is first with 67 points coming into Saturday and they will be even better with a win against Stoke and they are ahead of Arsenal, who won big over Liverpool. The Reds had been playing as good as anyone in 2015 and now the Gunners are still in second ahead of Man United, who won against Aston Villa.
Man United has had a return to form season and they are right there with Manchester City in the top four. Liverpool still has a gap to close and right now the top four teams are mostly secure as long as no one collapses. The loss for Liverpool is a tough one at this point and it comes after they were second in the league last year behind Manchester City. Liverpool is ahead of Southampton, while Tottenham and Swansea City are next in the standings.
West Ham comes in at number nine on the table, while Stoke City, Everton and Crystal Palace are the next teams. Newcastle is at 13th on the league table ahead of West Brom and Hull City, while Aston Villa, Sunderland and QPR are next. The two teams at the bottom are Burnley and Leicester and those down there have to worry about relegation at the end of the season.
Burnley and Tottenham play on Sunday ahead of Sunderland and Newcastle, while Crystal Palace will host Manchester City on Monday. Arsenal won 4-1 over Liverpool on Saturday, while Leicester City held against West Ham at home for a win. Manchester United won against Aston Villa, while Everton won against Southampton. Chelsea came into the game on Saturday with 20 wins on the season and just two losses with seven draws.
