Arsenal's 1-1 draw with Liverpool in the early hours of Sunday morning (24th) in the English Premier League, with a one-point advantage over the other side and Aston Villa, for the fourth time in a long time to be at the top of the English Premier League table for the Christmas season. However, the Arsenal's three previous "Christmas champions" of the English Premier League, but ultimately failed to have a chance to get to the league championships, including last season's cut off by Manchester City before being overtaken by Manchester City, it is not known if they can break the destiny of the current season.
After last season, Arsenal became the "Christmas Champion" of the EPL for the second time in the history of the team, the last time was in 1932 and 33 years. Since the establishment of the Premier League, the Arsenal have been on top of the table for the 4th time over Christmas, but the previous 3 results were unsatisfactory, including being snatched the title by Manchester United in 2002/03, and crossing the finish line in 3rd place in the 2007/08 season, before finishing as runners-up last season.
As a matter of fact, winning the "Christmas Championship" is not a guarantee of winning the Cup, because in the past 10 seasons of the EPL, only 6 "Christmas Champions" could win the title at the end of the day, and it is still too early to say whether Arsenal could win their first EPL title since the 2003/04 season.
