This season talented players like Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard, and Gabriel Martinelli, have been clicking through the gears, coming with important contributions to extend their stay atop the standings. Even after Arsenal had dropped points in their most recent games, they came from behind to beat Aston Villa and extend their stay at the top.
Manchester United
Manchester United has recently put forth their best effort to firmly establish themselves as title contenders after going a long streak of games without a loss. They have won their last four games by accumulating 10 out of a possible 12 points, while City and Arsenal have suffered defeats. The Red Devils currently trail league leaders Arsenal by five points despite having played one additional game.
