Arsenal spent Christmas Day on top of the Premier League after their draw with Liverpool, but Jurgen Klopp’s men replaced them, at least temporarily, with a win over struggling Burnley on Boxing Day.
Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota gave the Reds a 2-0 victory on the road, leaving the Gunners left to respond as they host West Ham on December 28.
Defending champions Manchester City remain in the title hunt after a 2-0 win over Everton, while Aston Villa lurk as well despite their late capitulation to Manchester United on the weekend.
The Sporting News will update the table below and break down each of the key races throughout the 2023/24 season.

Champions League spots, European places 2023/24
The big news in 2023/24 is that there’s a scenario in which the Premier League could see the top five teams all qualify for the UEFA Champions League if England finishes as one of the top two performing nations in European club cup competitions.
