The top of the table is separated by only 1 point between Manchester City and Liverpool, while the fight for the European zone continues to be fiercely contested.
On the other hand, relegation seems more and more defined against a Norwich that is condemned, a Burnley that can't get 3 points and a Watford that has been a problem all season long.

In the opposite direction of their opponents, Brentford will have to continue their quest to stay in the top flight of English soccer.
Of their last 5 games, they have won 2 and lost 3, but are 8 points above the relegation zone.

The Blues are on a great run in the local league and in European competitions, as they have won all of their last 5 matches with an important solvency.
