How many more twists will there be on the way to May? If it is anything like it is at the moment then we can expect some ferocious battles at both the top and the bottom of the league. Chelsea’s draw with West Ham on Sunday meant they again failed to capitalise massively on Manchester United’s defeat meaning the gap is currently four points when it could have been six.

Although positions have not really changed that much since the start of the season the results and points have. Teams continue to try and push forward for wins rather than draws meaning they will lose more this season than that of any previous season.

Arsenal seem to have this form of sneakiness this season, they have remained relatively quiet but in the last five games have snuck up very closely to their rivals with only six points between themselves and leaders Chelsea, but with a game in hand, they could therefore be a mere three points behind come January.

The question still remains as to how Chelsea will fare when some of their mainstream players head to Africa for a tournament that annoys the hell out of any manager, the African Nations Cup. How Chelsea cope this period of time could make or break them, Manchester United will want some of their defenders back from what is looking to be a larger casualty room than Manchester hostpital! Arsenal, if they continue to work away and pick up four wins out of five throughout the rest of the season, it may give them the platform they require to spring a surprise or two come what May.

The best online bookmakers have not changed their stance on the latest odds and keep Chelsea as the favourites.
