Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United.. Who will be the wineer? (part II)


In the remaining six games, Chelsea have to face one of the toughest rivals, Manchester United that still on the top of  Barclays English Premier League table with 72 points. Playing at Old Trafford, the club owned by Russian businessmen, Roman Abrahamovic must capitalize on two big advantages. The first one is the absence of Wayne Rooney, an attacker with the most goals in United's had ankle injury  after defeated against FC Hollywood at the Allianz Arena. The second advantage is the United players were in not fit condition after played in the European Champion League match a few days ago. Unfortunately, Chelsea's record at Old Trafford was not good. From 67 times to play at Old Trafford, the Blues won only 18 times, the series 22 times and lost 27 times. Last season, they must accepted defeat 3-0 after Nemanja Vidic, Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov scored each one goal.

The next opponent is Bolton Wanderers. Chelsea has a good record, especially when they played against Bolton at Stamford Bridge. Moreover, the Blues are now only focused on the Premier League and FA Cup. However Bolton can still make it difficult for Carlo Ancelotti’s squad because they are motivated to avoid relegation. Chelsea have won 22 times a game, the series 13 times and lost 11 times in 46 meetings with Bolton at Stamford Bridge. Last season they beat Bolton with big score, 4-0.

Chelsea also then have to face London rivals with The Lily Whites. This is certainly not an easy thing, The match will play at White Hart Lane and they are very motivated to win because their target to get one last ticket of the European Champion League zone next season. Chelsea were obliged to alert because last season they lost at the White Hart Lane after Luka Modric managed 1-0 score against Petr Cech.

Stoke City is one of the opponents the Blues are quite easy, especially those playing at Stamford Bridge. From four last game, Chelsea always got three points.

The Reds are opponents who predicted Chelsea would make it difficult road to become Premier League champions this season. Because Liverpool will be played at Anfield Stadium and will fight 100% to get three points so that the target entered European Champion League next season can be achieved. Although this season, Liverpool appear disappointing but they remain hard to beat especially Fernando Torres is in best condition and last season he scored two goals.

Chelsea’s final opponents in this season is Wigan Atletic. Chelsea were obliged to be careful dealing with this club since the last meeting, they managed to won 3-1 at The Stadium DW. Fortunely, the match will be played at Stamford Bridge and Chelsea predicted will reach three points.

So with six games remaining, Can Chelsea win the Premier League championship title this season? They remain a strong candidate because they can be more focus after losing from the European Champions League title race this season.

Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United .. Who will be the winner? (Part I)


There are still eight meetings remaining in Barclays Premier League. Manchester United still leads in the top of premier league table with 66 points. While Chelsea are in second place with 64 points but still have one game that has not been played. Arsenal is in third place with 64 points, the same points with Chelsea.
 
This makes the title race of English Premier League Championship became increasingly hot. But who will be the winner?

Manchester United are this winner of Carling cup in this season have to deal with Liverpool, Bolton Wanderers, Chelsea, Blackburn Rovers, Manchester City, Tottenham, Sunderland and Stoke City.

Statistical, Red Devils have a tough opponent like Liverpool, where the Reds for the last three meetings they always win and last season the Reds win 4-1 over United. While against Bolton, United predicted to achieve full points. But the next opponent, Chelsea  which is their toughest challengers. Although the game will play at Old Trafford but four days before it, the Red Devils have to face Bayern Munich in European Champions League.

Against Blackburn, Sir Alex Ferguson team is also predicted to achieve full points. But after that, they must meet with rivals Manchester City at the City of Manchester. This will be inconvenient for United because the team trained by Roberto Mancini ever gave heavy resistance at Old Trafford and beat Chelsea. Since 2006, United had only win once against The Citizens at City of Manchester.

Although Tottenham Hotspurs perform well this season but the last five meeting with The Red Devils, The Lily Whites always came home with no points.

United next opponent was The Black Cats. Although the need to play at The Stadium of Light, but some last meeting Manchester United are still favored to get the full points.

Barclays Premier League last week, Manchester United will be against Stoke City. United in the last three games are always got three points so the team coached by Tony Pullis predicted going home without points.

Manchester United even have to face opponents hard, but the team coached by Sir Alex Ferguson has a world-class talented player who is shining in this season, Wayne Rooney. He already produced 25 goals in English Premier League and become top scorer till this week. And the return of two world-class defender, Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic from their injury will help the United to defend title this season. So may United retain title in the Barclays Premier League Championship this season?
