Liverpool who have shown a desire and attacking belief not seen for quite sometime, will find themselves with the destiny in their own hands. Both Man City and Chelsea have the trip to Merseyside and given the performances of late, the red half of Merseyside will be in no mood to lay down for anyone who visits their patch. Liverpool have been returning their home to the fortress it once was. With three games to go, they could be heading for their best home record return in the Premier League era. Not since the early days of Rafa Benitez have Liverpool looked so dominant at Anfield. Whilst they have been notching the wins at home, they have also been bagging the goals. Not since the home win against Manchester United have home wins been narrow 1-0 victories. It would also seem that Liverpool like to beat their London opponents with great aplomb. In the games against Tottenham, Arsenal, West Ham, Fulham and Crystal Palace, Brendan Rodgers' teams have notched 20 goals and conceding just 3.If Liverpool can avoid defeat against Man City and Chelsea, a first title in 24 years will become very much a reality.
Chelsea, who have inflicted City's first Premier League defeat of the season at the Etihad, have found themselves looking like they dont necessarily fancy winning the title. Defeats either side of the 6-0 thumping against Arsenal, have causes Mourinho to give up any hopes of bringing domestic silverware to the Bridge this season. A win at Stoke though has kept their ambitions very much alive as they head to Swansea next week. Does Mourinho really think it's over or is he playing mind games.
Title favourites Manchester City smashed Southampton at home as they closed the gap on Liverpool to one point. They blue half of Manchester look to win their second Premier League title in three seasons, as they also look to make themselves the dominant force in Manchester as their neighbours united struggle. City will be hoping to take the form to Anfield and get a result that helps steer them to a League and League Cup double. They hope to have Aguero for the trip to Liverpool. It would seem that they would need them as Liverpool have the knack of outscoring their opponents.
Whoever wins the title, we will be seeing one of the most exciting title races for quite sometime.
