Chelsea could overtake Liverpool this weekend
Liverpool will remain top of the Premier League table after Boxing Day.
It is crisis club Manchester City, however, who get the Premier League action underway after Christmas when Pep Guardiola’s side host Everton in the early kick-off. With nine defeats in 12 games, the pressure really is on City now.
The action then continues with a busy 3pm GMT schedule. Title-chasing Chelsea host Fulham in a west London derby, while Tottenham head to high-flying Nottingham Forest. Bournemouth entertain Crystal Palace and West Ham make the trip to Southampton.
Later in the day, Manchester United travel to Wolves in dire need of a victory following last weekend’s loss to Bournemouth before the table-topping Reds host Leicester in the final game of the day.
Two games come after Boxing Day as Brentford travel down to Brighton before Arsenal entertain Ipswich to wrap up all the action for a few days.
