Epl Match-week 18 Preview And Verdict : Boxing Day Special by SportsHubng: 7:13am On Dec 26, 2013
Its that point of the premier league season where title contenders are separated from title pretenders, as man City play host to table topers Liverpool.
The last time Liverpool led the premier league table at Christmas was in 2008/09 season, but they eventually surrendered the title to Sir Alex’s United.
With all 20 teams doing battle on Boxing day, one thing is obvious, the table will once again change. Indeed, what an “unbealivable championship”.

Hull City vs Manchester United (12:45)
Manchester united will travel to Hull city hoping to continue their resurgence and get back in the “mix” come January, a victory for David Moyes men will be their fifth consecutive victory in all competition.
United should be wary of hull”s threat, as table toppers Liverpool left the KC stadium with a bitter pill to swallow, losing to Steve Bruce side by 3 goals to 1 on the first day of December.
Verdict : Hull City 0 – 2 Man united

Chelsea vs Swansea City (15:00)
Call him “boring” all you want, Jose Mourinho proved once again that he’s too intelligent to lose to Arsene Wenger, as Chelsea left the emirates with a vital point on Monday night.
The Portuguese tactician and his lads knows there wont be any margin for errors at this point of the season if they want to see the premier league trophy back at the Bridge come May, getting 3 points off Swansea wont be too much of an asking.
Swansea city has become the shadow of its self, struggling to regain that form that won them the Carling cup last season (beating Chelsea en-route the final).
With Michu and Dyer out of this one through injury, perhaps, some would argue that the Europa League is already taking its toll on Swansea’s season.
Verdict : Chelsea 2 – 0 Swansea

Everton vs Sunderland (15:00)
The Toffes have surely surprised many bookmakers with their start to the premier league season, having lost just once in 17 Epl games.
With the spotlight beaming on English sensation Ross Barkley, not forgetting the Barcelona loanee, Gerard Deulefeu who has also made the headline’s for the right reasons with his performance this season.
The voice in my head tells me Sunderland’s relegation battle will only get worse after 90 minutes at Goddison Park.
Verdict : Everton 3 – 0 Sunderland

Westham vs Arsenal (15:00)
The Sam Allardyce led men are strapped in attacking crisis, as Andy carol has not kicked a ball yet in the premier league this season due to injury, with Mali’s Modibo Maiga not potent enough in front of goal.

Arsenal will go into this game like a wounded lion, after Chelsea left the Emirates stadium with a vital point in a game the gunners should have won, but thanks to Olivier Giroud lack of top class finishing quality, that didnt happen.
Monday night result means Arsenal have only managed to...continue here >> http://sportshubng.com/epl-match-week-18-preview-verdict-boxing-day-special-liverpool-test-title-credentials-etihad/
