When the season ends, Manchester City will have nothing to show for their efforts apart from an automatic qualification to the Champions League which is a feat that was always a given more or less.

Tags: Gareth Bale, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City
With the Premier League season entering its climax phase, it is a “Now or Never” situation for most teams that are very close to achieving their goals, such is also the case of Champions League hopefuls Tottenham.

At the other end of the table, Aston Villa is the only team that is dangerously close to the relegation zone, with other teams slowly having built a comfortable gap above the bottom three.

Perhaps the most absorbing contest left is the contest for the third and fourth spots, the three teams fighting from it all hailing from London. With Arsenal stepping on the gas peddle in the past few weeks, Chelsea and Tottenham will have to match the Gunners’ form to give equally inspiring performances.
