The English Premier League table and EPL Title standings were shaken up Sunday, as Chelsea won against Liverpool at Anfield and now the Reds have a two point lead again over the Blues and Manchester City is closer in the standings and now Jose Mourinho's side has a chance at the trophy and does Man City, with the next few weeks on the schedule deciding who will win out.
Liverpool is first in the league standings and they needed seven points over their final three games to clinch the title and now all of that is in question and they are in the lead by two points over Chelsea. The Blues were two points back before their home loss to Sunderland at Stamford Bridge and that put them five points back of Liverpool after they won last week and now that lead is gone and with a Champions League match still to come for the Blues, they are in position to win the EPL trophy and now Manchester City also is in position to make a move and they have a match in hand on both clubs and that could be the difference.
Liverpool and Chelsea played at Anfield on Sunday in the biggest Premier League match of the season for both clubs and now after the results, the Blues and Reds are in position to win the title and the final weeks will decide that trophy. The Reds lost 2-0 and they uncharacteristically got shut out after leading the EPL in scoring and Luis Suarez, the leading scorer in the league, was held back and now the Reds are in danger of losing their top position in the league and the final weeks just got plenty more dramatic. Liverpool had the chance to solidify their title bid in the EPL and the match saw an error by captain Steven Gerrard and that changed the game after leading to a goal from Demba Ba which was the opening goal of the match and came in injury time and later Willian was able to add another goal for two and that was all the team needed.
Liverpool had only lost five points at Anfield this year and they had won 11 matches in a row and now Mourinho and Chelsea have the chance to push things over the final weeks. The team has their second leg against Atletico Madrid at home against Stamford Bridge this week after a scoreless draw in the first leg and that could mean an appearance in the Champs League finals. Mn City will be back just three points if they can hold on for the win, while Chelsea is now back two and the final weeks sure will be great to watch.
The other games on the schedule on Sunday had Sunderland winning at home against Cardiff City and they got two goals from Connor Wickham, while Crystal Palace was down 2-0 at the half by Manchester City after goals from Edin Dzeko and Yaya Toure.
