Have you ever thought
of which football team is going to win the Barclays Premier League (BPL) title
for this season? It is going to be week 16 for BPL, all of the matches are
going to be an open, contentious battleground heading into the Christmas
period. It will also be a great opportunity for the football team to turn their
luck around. It is still quite tough to predict which team will win the title
for this season. Therefore, we will just be looking at the 4 potential football
teams that could stand a chance to win the title for this season.
Manchester City F.C.

Manchester City is a strong candidate to win the BPL
title this season. Currently, it is in second position of the BPL table by having
a total of 33 points. The reason why Manchester City is a strong candidate to
win the title is because it is one of the Barclays Premier League’s best teams.
Manchester City is also one of the football club that is stacked with high
value players. Manchester City has also won the BPL title for the season in
2013/14. With the loan of Frank Lampard from New York City F.C, there is a very
high chances that Manchester City will retain the crown as they might be
unstoppable. In addition, Manchester City has been consistently winning for the
past four matches in both home and away games. If Manchester City can continue
performing well for the remaining matches, I strongly believe that Manchester
City will clinch the BPL title once again.
Chelsea F.C.

Chelsea is also known
as one of the best BPL team which has won the UEFA champions league in 2012. Chelsea
is essentially having an all-star squad. It has a very solid defence line and
versatile midfield. Besides that, Chelsea have landed a £32 million bargain for Atletico Madrid 25 years old striker Diego Costa making its squad to become more
comprehensive. Diego Costa has been actively playing in the squad and he has
scored a total of 11 goals in the BPL. All of this result Chelsea to be the
strongest candidate in winning the title by having a total of 36 points and is
currently in first position. People say money cannot buy happiness, but
apparently it can buy one of the best soccer teams in the world. The match in
week 16 will be a critical one as it will determine whether Chelsea is still
able stay at the first position of the BPL table. Therefore, Chelsea must win
the next match in order to compete with other football club for staying at the
first position.
Manchester United F.C.

Glory Glory Man United…. But will they still be able
to get back to those glory days? That still remains as a question for most of
the football fans out there. For most of the die-hard Manchester United fans,
they are still holding on to their faith towards the club, believing that they
will achieve the silverwares they once achieved. Under the management of the
new manager, Louis Van Gaal, he intended to overhaul the team by introducing
new philosophy onto the team, trying to lead the team back to the glory days. However,
the performance of Manchester United has been inconsistent in the season so
far, losing most of their away games and only won 3 matches out of 7 games
played away from their home stadium. In addition, it is an undeniable fact that
they have been showcasing consistent performances recently, winning all 5
matches in both home and away games, advancing into the top three positions in
the table. Therefore, I strongly believe that Manchester United should never be
excluded as one of the title contenders for this season’s BPL.
West Ham United F.C.

West Ham is considered as the dark horse for this
season. The reason why it is considered as the dark horse for this season is
because in the 2013/2014 season, West Ham ended the Barclays Premier League in
13th position. Surprisingly, it is currently in fourth position by having
a total of 27 points during week 15.
Besides that, West Ham has won one of the EPL’s best team, Manchester
City in week 9 by a score of 2-1. West Ham has gone beyond everyone’s
expectation. Undeniably West Ham has played much better in this season as compare with the past few season,
but West Ham has to maintain its performance in order to have a higher chances
in winning the BPL title.
From my perspective, it
is too early to judge which football team is going to win the BPL title as
based on the points gained by every team; the margin is so close that every
single game can be a game changer.
