This is why I love the English premier league. The points are very close which creates room for overtaking. City are currently leading with 12 points, with arsenal trailing behind with 10 points, same as Newcastle. The most exciting part of it all is that City will be in action this weekend against arsenal, which is a game that will determine who will move up the table. If city wins, they will extend their lead, while if arsenal wins, they will move straight up. If it ends in a draw, and Newcastle wins, arsenal will have to drop down. Same thing goes for other teams that are closely arranged on the table.
So I feel this weekend's epl fixtures are going to be interesting, but I doubt the level of contribution that some of the teams(those in the UCl) will be making. Some teams will be in action on Wednesday/Thursday, and also be in action on Sunday. Fatigue is definitely going to be a massive problem. But let's watch out
