For a long time, the "Christmas Champion" in the Premier League has always had the last laugh, but in recent years the situation has changed and the competition has become increasingly heated. So much so that the final winner is revealed at the end of the season, making it difficult to predict. In the past six years, only two seasons have seen the team at the top of the Christmas table crowned Premier League champions, and Liverpool may be feeling mixed emotions at the moment.
Looking back at the 2014/15 to 2017/18 seasons, the "Christmas table toppers" were successful in winning the cup for four consecutive years. However, since the 2018/19 season, the pattern has suddenly changed. In the last six seasons, the "Christmas champions" have only managed to win the title twice, with Liverpool topping the Christmas table three times but winning only once, so even if they become the "Christmas champions" again this season, they can't guarantee a final victory.
Arsenal can be described as bad luck, the past two seasons have ended as "Christmas champions", but unfortunately under Manchester City, only to harvest the runner-up, the netizens jokingly referred to as "runner-up slave".
Here are the final results of the last six seasons of the Premier League's 'Christmas champions':
