Manchester City vs Aston Villa - The defending champions dropped points in their two most recent games, which will damage their title options on the long run. Their upcoming match will see them facing the Villains, who are aiming to catch up on them with a key win here. Aston Villa is one of the clubs that have managed to beat Guardiola's men this season, but do they have what it takes to do it one more time?

Liverpool vs Sheffield United - The outcome of Sunday's games left Liverpool on top of the league one more time, and their options to add to that lead certainly have increased once they know they face Sheffield on Thursday. The team with the worst record in the Premier League has only won one of their last eight matches, which has deepened their crisis and could confirm them soon as the first relegated team this season. The Reds have won six in a row against Sheffield in all comps, including a 2-0 win in their previous match this season.

Chelsea vs Manchester United - Two teams that were supposed to be among the title contenders are now struggling to reach European tournament spots. Chelsea are unbeaten in their last five EPL games, but only two of those have been wins. On the other hand, Manchester United dropped more points last weekend, leaving them eight points behind Tottenham and only four ahead of West Ham. Although each of these teams have been disappointing this season, this is the type of game that could boost their options for the final stretch of the season, and if we consider the Red Devils' win last December, we could be in for a good fight for three points at Stamford Bridge.
