City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs, United, Chelsea, Villa, Newcastle, Brighton.
Those are the best nine teams in the prem and offer seriously tough games home and away. Brighton I'm debating as they've dropped a level since last season but still including.
In that nine, the mini league table is:
City - - - - - - - - - P4 W3 D0 L1 Pts9 (2 home, 2 away)
Arsenal - - - - - - P5 W2 D2 L1 Pts8 (3 home, 2 away)
Liverpool - - - - - P5 W2 D2 L1 Pts8 (1 home, 4 away)
Brighton - - - - - -P5 W2 D1 L2 Pts7 (2 home, 3 away)
Spurs - - - - - - - - P3 W2 D1 L0 Pts7 (2 home, 1 away)
Newcastle - - - - P5 W2 D0 L3 Pts6 (3 home, 2 away)
Villa - - - - - - - - - P4 W2 D0 L2 Pts6 (1 home, 3 away)
Chelsea - - - - - - P3 W0 D2 L1 Pts2 (3 home, 0 away)
United - - - - - - - P4 W0 D0 L4 Pts0 (2 home, 2 away)
All pleasingly close apart from the bottom two... Chuckle...
- City always ominous.
- Liverpool, Villa and Brighton all impressive with their tough away fixtures they've already had.
- Spurs doing well but have had the easiest fixtures so far alongside Chelsea.
- Newcastle and Arsenal a bit meh given number of home games.
- Chelsea and United
