Boxing Day: Waiting for the "big guys" to give gifts

VIỆT HÙNG |

In recent years, the round on Boxing Day has always been a "specialty" of the Premier League. Most big teams are scheduled to play quite comfortably on this day to be able to easily give fans spiritual gifts.

The matches of round 20 of the Premier League will take place from 19:30 on the evening of December 26 to 03:00 on December 27. Of the 10 matches, none are considered a highlight match.

Because the 6 teams leading the rankings could avoid each other in round 20. With 3 teams struggling in the relegation zone, they do not have to face each other directly in life-and-death matches.

Liverpool are considered the top 6 team with the best chance to give gifts to those who love them. Jurgen Klopp's team's opponent, Swansea City, is at the bottom of the rankings with only 13 points after 19 rounds.

The "longest" team in the top 6 will be Manchester United when they have to host Burnley at Old Trafford. Burnley is being considered a phenomenon in the Premier League this season as the tournament has gone through half of the journey but Sean Dyche's team is still ranked 7th in the rankings.

Although they have not had an impressive performance recently, with home advantage, M.U has every right to believe in a victory. However, in the past, the "Red Devils" were defeated by Burnley on Boxing Day.

In the 1963 season, M.U lost 1-6 to Burnley in a match on Boxing Day.

The remaining big names such as Tottenham, Chelsea, Arsenal or Manchester City all have a great chance to win all 3 points. As for Man City, Pep Guardiola's team is facing the opportunity to increase their winning streak to 18 consecutive wins because their opponent is only rookie Newcastle, ranked 15th.

The last days of the year are always the most stressful time for Premier League clubs. They will have to compete at a frequency of 3 days/match and many teams have lost their position after only 1 week of Christmas.

The history of the Premier League also shows that with only 13/25 seasons, the top teams after Christmas can be crowned at the end of the season.
