MADRID, Oct. 17 (EUROPA PRESS) –
Tottenham and Chelsea, third and fourth in the Premier League, will try to settle in the Champions League positions and get closer to the top of the standings on the eleventh day of the competition, in which the duel at the top between Arsenal and Manchester City will not be played. .
The ‘gunners’, who lead the English championship with 27 points, and the ‘citizens’ (23), now second to four units after losing the weekend to Liverpool (1-0), will not play their match this Wednesday at Emirates Stadium, as Mikel Arteta’s men will play the eagerly awaited Europa League match against PSV Eindhoven on Thursday, postponed to September due to preparations for Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral.
Thus, the “Spurs”, with the same 23 points as Pep Guardiola, will have the opportunity to climb to second place at Old Trafford, where they seek their third consecutive victory against Manchester United, stumbled last day against Newcastle (0 -0). .
The ‘red devils’ (16) will try to defend fifth place, the last entry to Europe, and also approach or enter the ‘Champions’ zone, which marks a Chelsea (19) that grew with the arrival of Graham on the bench Potter.
Led by the new coach, the ‘blue’ team has regained momentum in the Champions League with two wins against Milan and now have five straight wins in all competitions after beating Aston Villa on Sunday (0-2). Now, Brentford (13) returns home, breaking a three-game winning streak against Brighton (2-0).
Meanwhile, Liverpool, eighth with 13 units and three of the continental positions, hope to exploit the victory against City to recover the good dynamics after three championship dates without reaching it, and will face a West Ham that has won 7 of the last 9 points.
