All the teams above Manchester United have played fewer matches than them, and especially Arsenal who surpassed them has played three matches less than them.
Now, it seems highly unlikely for Manchester United to get back into the top 4. I think they are not going to make it this season. Manchester United really need to start playing as teamwork otherwise I think they will go further down the points table
With only three outstanding matches, Arsenal can cause a fracas in the table by competing with Chelsea if they can win 3 matches, but you know Liverpool's history with the Gunners, they are always difficult to defeat, but based on their recent performance, they can easily bypass Aston Villa and either win 3-1 for Crystal Palace. With these 6 point wins, Arsenal no longer needs to compete with Manchester United for fourth place, the new goal is to compete with Chelsea. I want to see Arsenal finish this season EPL with 3rd place.
Arsenal can indeed be a threat to Chelsea, because Arsenal are very likely to pursue points owned by Chelsea. Moreover, seeing Arsenal's
very consistent performance by winning 5 wins in a row, that's an extraordinary thing. We will see in a few days Arsenal will face Liverpool,
it is a very important game for both teams. Liverpool really need a win to be able to catch up with Man City's points, so Liverpool must not
lose points against Arsenal. Meanwhile, Arsenal are still struggling to maintain 4th position from the pursuit of Man United, which is only
one point apart. So Arsenal are trying to win in every game. But we know Arsenal have a bad track record against Liverpool, so I consider
Arsenal to face Liverpool as a calculated defeat. But if Arsenal can win against other teams, not only Arsenal will maintain the 4th position,
but Arsenal could replace Chelsea's position. It seems that Arsenal's chances of being in 3rd position are quite large, we'll see if Arsenal
are able to do that.
