Liverpool is looking ominously good for the 2019/2020 Premier League title. The Reds’ run of amazing form has shown little sign of being stopped and the question now is if defending champions; Manchester City can keep the pace.
While Pep Guardiola’s Cityzens have deviated from the amazing standards set over the last two seasons, Jurgen Klopp’s side has continued from where they left off last season.
The pace set by the pair has not been matched by any of the other members of the so-called “Big 6”. Chelsea and Leicester City have been the most impressive outside of the top two and both are in with a serious chance for the remaining UEFA Champions League slots for next season.
Norwich City’s early good run has come to a riotous end with the club now knee-deep in relegation waters alongside the likes of Southampton, Newcastle United, Watford FC and the likes.
