It's quite interesting when you look at the current competition for the top four in the English Premier League standings, but with the unstable performance of Man United and Chelsea, the competition feels incomplete. The current points gap is not too big, in the sense that every club in the UCL zone still has a chance to top the standings and it is still very possible for changes to occur every week. Talking about the top teams in the title race this season, the four clubs that currently occupy the top four of the standings really deserve to be on the list.

In general, it will not be easy for Pep Guardiola squad to defend the EPL trophy this season, along with the increasing performance of other teams at the same time. I think in the future it will be very difficult for teams that have gone far in the UCL to achieve stable performance in two competitions at once, so this is a moment for clubs with minimal match schedules to top the standings like Tottenham.

In my opinion, there's only one club I'm pretty sure have secured the UCL competition which is Manchester City, I'm not pretty sure about the rest cause anything is possible and either Manchester United or Chelsea could still finish top four this season,one thing I like about the EPL is that every season is very tougher than the previous and the teams that qualified for the UCL might not be exactly the same four teams that would qualify for the next season's competition, and also I feel the top teams that makes the top four at the end of every season are the ones who deserves it more.

Based on how tough this season's competition is I think Pep Guardiola might experience on of his toughest season in the EPL cause several mediocre teams are beginning to sit up and perform very better and making it tough for the top teams in the league,well Manchester City managed to perform well in three competitions and won all last season, let's see if they'll be able to replicate that this season.
