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?

The North London Derby highlights this week's slate of games as Arsenal prepares to entertain
Tottenham Hotspur this weekend.
Somebody in Bristol is smiling today, as the early match on ESPN figures to be the most-watched

It's on at 8:45 a.m. on ESPN2, if you're wondering.

It's hard to look at the table and see a "9″ in the "played" column and call the next match on
the schedule a must-win.
But that may just be the case for Liverpool on Sunday when Manchester United visits Anfield.
The Reds are already seven points adrift of table-topping United, so going 10 down with 10 games
in the books is not the stuff of which title-winning dreams are made.

If it's lonely at the top, you wouldn't guess it by watching Chelsea run rampant through the
Premier League in the early stages of the 2009-2010 campaign.
With a perfect 18 points in six matches and a +12 goal difference to boot, the Blues aren't
letting their recent transfer ban get in the way of a rapid start.

The English Premier League is set to start on Saturday August 15th, 2009 with Manchester United
looking to win their 4th straight title. This year proves to be very competive at the top as
Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City will be looking to knock off the reigning
champions. Man City have made news with their spending spree that includes Carlos Tevez, Emmanuel
Adebayor, Roque Santa Cruz, Gareth Barry, and Kolo Toure.

I can almost smell it.
At the end of tomorrow's match we could be celebrating our third consecutive EPL title for the
second time since the league's inception in 1992.
As it stands we sit six points ahead of Liverpool in second with two games to go, with that in
mind we need only one point from our remaining two games to win this year's Premier League.

Well, Liverpool are top of the league after Christmas - just as Rafa predicted - and they looked
superb in a big Boxing Day win over Bolton. Benayoun, Gerrard, and Alonso showed their immense
talent in the midfield while Robbie Keane scored twice to silence his critics. But we have little
time for reflecting on the past, as Sunday brings us a clean slate of footie fixtures and much room
for fantasy debate.

A quick note from Butt's Brain as I watch the Arsenal - Wigan match live. I haven't watched Wigan
in quite some time but Ryan Taylor (4.2M) looks very lively today and has provided
superb delivery from free kicks and corners for Wigan.
As we've mentioned in the past, Wigan defenders (Figueroa/Melchiot) should only be considered as
bench options, but Taylor is playing in an advanced midfield role today.
