The Premier League is on fire and the Christmas Express is racing! Although Liverpool is clinging to the position of "leader", but the upcoming Christmas Express schedule is like a severe marathon, intensive games and strong rivals surrounded by London's "two males" - Chelsea and Arsenal - watching intently. Chelsea and Arsenal - eyeing. Whether or not they can manage the Christmas Express will determine whether or not Liverpool can return to the top of the Premier League.
This season, Liverpool has been gaining momentum, leading the table for a while. But until the end of the year, the Christmas fast schedule is its real test. Not only to deal with the Christmas holidays, but also at the end of the season and Manchester United to start the battle of life and death. The "Red Devils" have a lot of experience in the field and should not be underestimated. The new manager, Schlomo, is very good at rotating his squad to minimize physical exertion and to test the skills of his players. Mohammad Shah's contract extension is still pending, and if not handled correctly, it could be the turning point for the team to go from strength to strength.
However, there are still two "dark horses" behind Liverpool. Chelsea's momentum is so strong that the Christmas fast track schedule seems to be easy for them. Most of the opponents they face are weaker, and with starters such as Golpenma and Nicholas Jackson in good form, frequent rotations and intensive matches are extremely favorable to them.
The other London team, Arsenal, who have finished as runners-up in the past two seasons, have been picking up significantly in recent times. Apart from a tough match against Bradenton, the Christmas fast track fixtures are hardly any tough matches for them, which is a good time for them to re-emerge.
Manchester City are currently four points behind and are in desperate need of "self-help".
Manchester City, who achieved four consecutive titles last year, suddenly hit a low point this season. The Christmas Express fixtures will be a turning point for them, will they be able to rebound from the adversity or will they continue to sink? Even manager Dionne is full of doubts about this.
In October, City fell apart after losing against Tottenham Hotspur. Since then, they've gone downhill without warning.
The fall of the "Blue Moon" seemed to come without warning, as they lost to Tottenham Hotspur in the EFL Cup at the end of October, and then fell off the map. Prior to that, they had been very dominant. What's most worrying is that City's players have been used to winning for the past few years, and when they encounter adversity, their mentality is unbalanced and they can't face reality. This "shoe-shine" mentality has led to a vicious cycle where they lose more and more and become more and more confident.
Man City will first face Everton in a fierce match, "Drag Fat Sugar" is good at defense, it is difficult for Man City to break through. They will then face Lister City, who are good at counter-attacks, and finally host Westham, whose performance has been fluctuating. In this fixture, City have a chance to bounce back and get 4 points.
