With Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City running away with the Premier League Title early on, the race for the top four, and the relegation battles have become the focus of the football world. Last weekend\u2019s round of Premier League fixtures have thrown up some unexpected results. Thus turning up the heat at both ends of the table, with this week\u2019s midweek Premier League games proving pivotal.<\/p>\n
With both sides level on points, the loser of this tie faces the final round of fixtures in the relegation zone.<\/p>\n
Both clubs have a game in hand over fellow strugglers West Brom – this one. The Baggies\u2019 surprise win over Tottenham on Saturday gave a boost to Darren Moore\u2019s unlikely survival bid and added a twist to the triangle.<\/p>\n
Swansea have the worst goal difference of the three sides. Therefore a draw may not be enough to secure a finish above West Brom.<\/a> With the promotion of Cardiff, a Welsh Derby could feature in the Premier League next season, should they survive.<\/p>\n A victory, plus a Huddersfield defeat will lift either side to 16th place. Thus providing that team with some degree of comfort heading into the final fixtures on Sunday.<\/p>\n On the 1st of April Chelsea suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Tottenham, resulting in an eight-point gap between the two, and ten between Chelsea and Liverpool.<\/p>\n It was looking like Antonio Conte’s men would be missing out on Champion\u2019s League football. However, fast forward to today, and Chelsea find themselves only 2 points behind Tottenham and 3 behind Liverpool, having beaten the Merseysiders.<\/p>\n They were gifted the chance by West Brom\u2019s last-gasp goal to defeat Spurs at the Hawthorns. A disaster for Pochettino\u2019s men.<\/p>\nChelsea vs Huddersfield<\/h2>\n
