The latest round of the English Premier League has almost wrapped up. Only one game remains – Middlesbrough vs. Arsenal on Monday.
Nonetheless, the bulk of the action is done and dusted. Chelsea lost to Manchester United on Super Sunday, meaning Spurs trail the leaders by only four points after beating Bournemouth 4-0 a day earlier.
Man City beat Southampton, with Liverpool also overcoming their opponents over the weekend. This just means the title and top-four races got more exciting.

Chelsea’s awful record vs. Man United
Chelsea were probably the favorites to win at Old Trafford, but lost 2-0. Although an air of controversy surrounded the host’s opening goal, there is no denying the fact that Man United kept the Blues quiet for 90 minutes.
So quiet that Antonio Conte’s men couldn’t even register a shot on target. The last time Chelsea failed to record a shot on target in an entire game was in 2007… against the Red Devils at Old Trafford.
Mourinho knows how to win
Mourinho has not enjoyed the best of seasons. Man United struggle from time to time despite their lavish spending over the summer, and they look set to miss out on a top-four finish.
However, the win over Chelsea saw the Special One reach an impressive tally. The Portuguese boss has now registered at least one victory over all 34 Premier League teams he has faced.

Kane is an elite Premier League striker
Just as Tottenham are flying high, so is their star striker Harry Kane. The Englishman continued his fine form in front of goal by scoring in the 4-0 thrashing of Bournemouth.
But that strike did much more than up Tottenham’s goal difference. It was the Three Lions international score his 20th goal of the season, a feat he has reached in the two previous seasons also.
He is only the fourth Premier League striker to score 20+ goals in three consecutive seasons.
