This week's English Premier League play left the top of the table in a tighter race than previous years. Chelsea still hold a 2 point advantage over Manchester United despite losing this week to Liverpool 2-0. Striker Fernando Torres has again found his form. If torres can maintain his form Liverpool who is currently ten points away from leaders Chelsea could move closer to the top. Manchester United kept its league title hopes in tact with a win this weekend against the Wolves, as Park Ji Sung put away a game winner.
Manchester United faces Manchester City in an important derby this week which could reflect the direction of the top of the table. Arsenal lost points this weekend with a 0-1 defeat to Newcastle. The Newcastle victory puts them in contention for a top spot in the English Premier League as they finish the week of play only 3 points behind 3rd place Arsenal and Manchester City. As Arsenal take on the Wolverhampton Wanderers a team that is currently at the bottom of the table, Manchester United and Manchester City play in the derby one of the two teams will likely drop points, Chelsea take on Fulham, a team towards the bottom of the table.
Next weeks round of matches will likely leave one team a little further away from the top. I would bet on Manchester United solidifying their spot at the top.
