The cat and mouse chase for the crown in the premier league for the 2020/2021 season have taken unforeseen turns on numerous occasions. Despite this, the fun and high level of unpredictability make it enjoyable for viewing. The league might still close on half a game this season but a favorite for the title is still unclear.

At the moment in the league, just four points separate Liverpool who tops the league with Everton who seats seventh on the league table.

The leaders of the pack, Liverpool are only on top with a superior goal difference to Manchester United but the Red Devils still have a game in hand.

The league is still wide open and it's easily noticeable that's one team has played a game or two more than others. As of the case of man city having two games at hand. Aston Villa currently sits at eight on the table but has two games at hand also and the team is just 7 shy of the leaders, Liverpool.

With a league title up for grabs, it's hard to pinpoint one team for the title. let's check the seven top team who has a shot at winning the league.

Liverpool

The current holders of the title still have a shot at retaining the gong but other teams around them have stepped up. Every Little slip in the title race is an opportunity for one team to overtake another.

Liverpool has not been helped by injuries and Covid this season as most of their first-team players are out injured. Their last game against Southampton saw them play without a recognized central back as all are out injured.

Liverpool has used more youth team players more than anyone in the league this season as lots of players in their ranks has been out injured. Liverpool once had more than 9 players out injured and that forced Klopp to give over three players their first appearance in a Liverpool shirt.

Liverpool still looks strong as they could bank goals from salah, Frimnho, and Mane to spur them to victory.

Manchester United

No one expected the red devils to be second on the league table especially not with how things got bad at a point. their elimination from the UEFA Champions League coupled with a run of bad results put Ole in the spotlight.

Manchester United fortunes changes immediately after their UEFA elimination and they would go on and win over 7 games on a stretch while also reaching the carabao cup semi-final. Although Manchester city defeated them, yet their spirited display was admirable.

Manchester star man has been Fernandez and his outstanding performance has helped improved others around him. This has been highlighted by his goals and assists in the competition.

Man United are beginning to get their grove back. They have started scoring late goals to win games and that's was how the classic Manchester United side leaves it late.

Liecester city

The foxes have put themselves back in the running of the league title too after an upturn of events. Seating third on the log table might not be surprising as they have quality in their team.

They have suffered some injury crises at their central back positions too in the past but all seems fine now with the integration of fanfan in the backline. The 19-year-old has been a rock and a mainstay in the team this year.

Hardy remains key in their pursuit for the title but other players like Maddison and anyone offer something different to their side.

The foxes are not the favorite to claim the title but they could present a good challenge to any team aiming for the premiership gong.

Tottenham

On 29 points with a game in hand, Mourinho's side remains a strong challenger for the title. Recent results in the league might have been a setback in their title push but they remain in the race.

Their key man remains Kane and Son and both have a telepathic connection. Both have scored and assisted each other goals for most of the league games.

It remains to see if the side of this spur could offer something more than just this connection between these two. For now, the title race is quite open for them.

Manchester City

Talk about recovering from a bad start, that's exactly what the pep side has done this season. The season started on a bad note for this side but they have managed to recover.

Although they are not yet at their lightning best at the moment, yet they have a great shot at winning the league. They are currently on fifth with two games in hand to play.

Winning those two games will see them top the league and the restoration will be complete. Kelvin De bruyne remains the side brightest star then the emergence of Foden this season has been a big push to their campaign.

Injuries and lack of form affected manchester city upfront as they have to use Delap a 17-year-old as their first choice striker on numerous occasions. Gabriel Jesus looks to be out of sorts and finding the back of the net seems like a tough task to him at the moment.

Aguero has been injured for the majority of the season and he had been sorely missed. His return is imminent and his contribution will be telling how far man city could go.

Southampton

The Saints alongside Aston Villa and Everton has been a revelation. They may not be a favorite for the English trophy but they could cause an upset.

Their key man ings have been phenomenal again this season despite injuries. he has a total of 10 goals contribution for the Saints side with 7 coming as a goal score by him while laying three extra for his teammates.

Everton

They had the most perfect record at the beginning of the league campaign but somehow derailed after series of injury-hit their team and most especially their best plàyer James Rodriguez.

They managed to pick up the heat once more in recent weeks as they have won most of their matçhes since December. Dominic Calvert Lewis remains one of their best bet to continue aiming for the league.

Is 12 goals in the league are n all-time high for him and he could add more in the coming weeks to further push Everton challenging for the title for the first time in years.

Coach Carol Ancelotti has done a great job with his team requirements and his coaching style has huge the player more freedom to do more. It remains to be seen if all goes well and they may be placed within touching distance of winning the league in May.
