What is the Premier League table this season?

0



Liverpool closed the gap at the top of the Premier League to Manchester City to just three points with a 1-0 victory over West Ham on Saturday.

A single goal from Sadio Mane in the first half was enough to earn Jurgen Klopp’s side maximum points, which puts them within striking distance of the league leaders.

The Reds are now up to 63 points, just three shy of City, and boast a better goal difference than the team that will face Manchester United on Sunday.

The leading two sides are running away with the league. Chelsea might have stopped their slump in form by hammering Burnley on Saturday, but even after three successive league victories, Thomas Tuchel’s side remain 13 points behind Liverpool.

Saturday was not a good day for the other clubs that started the weekend in the top half of the table and who were in action. Wolves, Southampton and Brighton were all defeated.

In the relegation zone, Norwich’s situation now looks hopeless as they remain rooted to the foot of the standings with 17 points from 27 games. They were beaten 3-1 at home to Brentford thanks to an Ivan Toney hat-trick, which has given the Bees some valuable breathing space in the battle against the drop.

Leeds, who sacked manager Marcelo Bielsa earlier this week and replaced him with Jesse Marsch, also suffered a defeat that keeps them in the thick of trouble. They went down 1-0 against Leicester, though the overall performance was a heartening one.

Besides the Manchester derby, Sunday’s other fixture sees Watford tackle Arsenal at Vicarage Road.

The Premier League action for the weekend concludes with Tottenham playing host to Everton in a fixture that both sides need to win for contrasting reasons. Antonio Conte’s men are still in with a shout of reaching the Champions League but surely need three points, while the Toffees remain in major relegation trouble.
