Following up from an earlier article I'd like to pose a question to all the non ex-pat North American readers of EPL Talk: How Did You Find Who You Support?

It's ultimately a broad question that has more potential answers to it than current injury concerns at Liverpool. But I believe the question sparks an interesting debate as Americans are still searching for their place in world football.

As you know, EPL Talk focuses on the Premier League and not the lower leagues of England, but my day didn't start so well when Setanta-i had technical problems which prevented me and all other Setanta-i customers from viewing the Welsh derby featuring the club I've supported all my life, Swansea City, against Cardiff City.

So... to review... for Liverpool to qualify for the Champions League round of sixteen one of the following scenarios needs to occur:

1.) Liverpool beat Debrecen AND Lyon beat Fiorentina AND Liverpool beat Fiorentina.

2.) Liverpool beat Debrecen AND Lyon draw with Fiorentina AND Liverpool beat Fiorentina by at least three goals.

Several Premier League clubs announced today changes to their January fixtures so matches can be moved to TV timeslots. As a result, we can infer which matches will be shown on the US soccer TV networks.

January's highlights include:

• Arsenal v Manchester United, Sunday, January 31, 11am ET, Fox Soccer Channel
• Liverpool v Tottenham Hotspur, Sunday, January 10, 11am ET, Fox Soccer Channel
• Birmingham v Man United, Saturday, January 9, 12;30pm ET, Fox Soccer Channel
• Hull v Chelsea, Saturday, January 9, 7:45am ET, ESPN2

Be sure to read the complete TV schedule of Premier League matches shown in the US.

Without a doubt, Sunday's game between Chelsea and Manchester United is the biggest of the season between the two clubs who have the best chance to win the Premier League title this season (sorry Arsenal fans). So, it's no wonder that so much importance is being placed on this game. Not that who wins will decide anything, but it will be a massive psychological boost for the winning team and will show which club has what it takes to win the title.

I'm leaving on Monday for a trip to Las Vegas for a search marketing conference, so I want to wrap up the EPL Talk contests before I leave in order to mail the packages and to make some football fans very happy. So today, if you're lucky enough to be reading this, you have the opportunity to win one of three copies of FIFA 10 we're giving away and a copy of the book by Barney Ronay named The Manager.

This season has not started the best for Everton, so far they have been unable to recapture the form they showed last season in the league and  sit a lowly 13th. Couple this with two heavy defeats and the hands of Benfica in the Europa league and things aren't looking so rosy for David Moyes and his men.

Traditional terrace tipplers still mouthing up their marmite at the news that Newcastle's St. James' Park will henceforth be known as sportsdirect.com@St. James' Park Stadium will be further aghast to learn that Chelsea would consider cashing in on Stamford Bridge. We are not too far off from Ethan Armstrong's vision here at EPL Talk of sponsored songs and players.

Here are the video highlights for the very first season of the Premier League, 1992-93. Included in the video is the great Brian Clough, once-great clubs such as Norwich City, Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town, as well as the intriguing race for the title featuring Manchester United, Aston Villa, Norwich City, Queens Park Rangers and Blackburn Rovers.

Former teammates; Alonso and Gerrard

I really can't wait to read the December installment of FourFourTwo Magazine. In this issue Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard finally states what we all know: the departure of Xabi Alonso to Real Madrid has undeniably damaged the Merseyside club.

Kartik Krishnaiyer and Laurence McKenna break down all the midweek Champions League action. Hear Kartik's very sharp opinions on UEFA's seeding process and Laurence's views on Jose Mourinho and Rafa Benetiz. We also preview this weekend's headline top of the table clash between Chelsea and Manchester United.

Stan Kroenke has purchased even more shares in Arsenal today taking his holding to 29.9% of the club. With only another 0.09% required to reach the threshold to make an offer for the rest of the clubs shares, Kroenke has purchased 627 shares this week for the princely sum of £5.3 million.

"It is difficult for us to qualify, but not impossible,We have to win our game and see what happens with Fiorentina and Lyon. Then we will approach the last game." Benitez has certainly fought his corner today after the galling last minute equaliser Liverpool conceded in the Stade Gerland last night.

Ten years ago today, when I was still single, I threw a party for about 20 of my friends in my studio apartment. It was November 5th, 1999. On a shoestring budget, I had an assortment of sausage rolls and poppadoms available for people to eat and plenty of bottles of beer to wash the food down.

Does it get much better?

Manchester United visits Chelsea this weekend with first place on the line.

I could stop there, but then this wouldn't be much of a preview, would it?

Before we get into the games, check out the TV schedule.
