The EPL Table standings has Chelsea in first place in the English Premier League and they are up over Liverpool and Manchester City after winning on Saturday and now the Reds play against West Ham United on Sunday with the chance to get into the top spot once again after the Blues jumped ahead with a win against Stoke City.

Chelsea has a one point lead over Liverpool and the Reds have the chance to jump over on Sunday, while Man City is in third place after a win and they are ahead of Arsenal on the table. The Gunners are in fourth over Everton and Manchester United, while Tottenham is in seventh place and Southampton is ahead of Newcastle United and Stoke City. West Ham and Hull City are ahead of Aston Villa, while Crystal Palace and Swansea City are next on the league table ahead of West Brom and Norwich City and they are the last two out of relegation.

Man City won over Southampton to start the day with a nice offensive performance at the Etihad, while Fulham won away against Aston Villa and Cardiff City won against Crystal Palace. Hull City won a close match over Swansea, while Manchester United won away against Newcastle, West Brom took it 1-0 away against Norwich and Chelsea took back the lead in the EPL standings for at least one day as they won against Stoke City.

The Sunday schedule has Everton taking on Arsenal at Goodison Park, while Liverpool will visit West Ham United at Upton Park and that is a crucial match for Luis Suarez and his team. Yaya Toure continued his strong season with another goal for Man City and after Rickie Lambert tied things up, the team got three more scores with Samir Nasri, Edin Dzeko and Stevan Jovetic to get the victory. Juan Mata scored two goals for Man U to give them a lead against Newcastle before Javier Hernandez scored and against Stoke City Frank Lampard added a goal after Mohamed Salah started things off 32 minutes in.

Chelsea and Liverpool have a match coming up at Anfield and that could be for the Premier League table lead and that could make for some exciting games down the stretch for both sides.
