Liverpool’s Potential Premier League Standing at Christmas After Arsenal and Man City Predictions

Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City are all poised to compete for the Premier League title this season. However, what might the league standings for this trio look like by December?

For the second straight season, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City appear to be the primary contenders for the Premier League title.

Last season, these three teams were closely matched for most of the campaign. Liverpool looked strong and led the standings heading into the final quarter, but a series of disappointing results saw them slip away. Arsenal and City battled it out, with City ultimately pulling ahead to secure the Premier League title for the fourth consecutive time.

This season has seen some significant changes. Liverpool appointed a new manager, Arne Slot, as the Dutchman replaced long-time coach Jurgen Klopp.

Manchester City, on the other hand, will be without Ballon d’Or-winning midfielder Rodri for the entire season, while Arsenal have had to cope with Martin Odegaard’s injury, which has kept him out of action for more than a month.

As of gameweek 10, City sat at the top of the league. However, they conceded twice against Bournemouth, while Liverpool staged a comeback from a goal down to secure a 2-1 lead over Brighton.

Arsenal had an opportunity to close the gap between these teams but suffered a loss to Newcastle United at St James’ Park, with Alexander Isak scoring the only goal of the match.

Fortunately for Arsenal, both Liverpool and City face challenging fixtures this weekend against Aston Villa and Brighton, respectively. Arsenal, in turn, face a difficult match against Chelsea. It’s not far-fetched to think all three could end up with draws against their opponents.

Following these games, Liverpool will play Southampton, a match they are expected to win. City will face Spurs at home instead of at their typically troublesome ground, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

This matchup could see City potentially drop points again, possibly allowing Liverpool to surpass them. Arsenal will take on Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium. Despite Forest’s strong performances this season, Arsenal would likely be favored to secure a win on their home turf.

The last set of matches before the intense December schedule kicks in will see Liverpool and Manchester City go head-to-head, while Arsenal will face West Ham United.

Newsnow Liverpool predicts that the Reds and City will cancel each other out, with that match likely ending in a draw, while Arsenal is expected to secure a win over West Ham United.

If these predictions hold, the Premier League standings at the start of December would show Liverpool at the top with 30 points, Manchester City in second with 26 points, and Arsenal in third with 25 points.

Liverpool need to seize every opportunity when Manchester City and Arsenal drop points. With City appearing less formidable without Rodri and Arsenal already having dropped points several times this season, it’s crucial for the Reds to consistently secure points and establish a strong lead over their rivals.
