Two English Premier League clubs look to come out of the break on a high, as Brighton & Hove Albion gets set to host Bournemouth on Monday. Brighton has not been considered one of the toughest teams in the Premier League to play this season, but there is always a chance the club can pull out a stunner now and then.

There is still plenty of work to be done, however. Manchester City and Aston Villa slipped up against Manchester United and Everton respectively but they remain in close pursuit, both trailing Arsenal by seven points.

Wolves are well on their way down to the EFL Championship, as the club is facing relegation for the first time since they were promoted to the Premiership in 2018. Wolverhampton has just one victory in 21 league matches, that coming a couple of weeks ago against West Ham.

Arsenal have avoided the midwinter wobble that derailed previous races and have increased the gap at the top to six points. This is the biggest cushion Mikel Arteta’s side have had at this stage of the season, tightening the pressure on Pep Guardiola’s men in the title race.
