Updated Table and Standings of 2021 Premier League - Positions of football teams, Points, Last five results

Plenty of the big boys struggled early in the season, while Liverpool and Tottenham raced out ahead of the pack, but it’s now Manchester United who lead the Premier League title race and Man City topping the group in points-per-game, according to NBS Sports.

Then there are Leicester City, Liverpool, Tottenham, Everton, and West Ham — five teams separated by six points from third to seventh.

This feels like a season where an underdog will not only finish in the top-four but also challenge for the title, as teams that aren’t in European competition have a clear advantage when it comes to their players being fitter and fresher in comparison to the seven teams in Europe.

In short, this season is going to be wild on multiple fronts and as we head into 2021 we can expect it to stay crazy.

At the bottom of the table, there is a growing sense that the bottom four may be cut adrift in the coming weeks, as Fulham, West Brom, Sheffield United and Brighton have all struggled early in the season. Burnley have performed well in recent weeks but are still in the battle, while Arsenal is no longer in danger of slipping into the bottom three.

It no longer early days, but there will still be plenty of twists and turns ahead because, well, this is the Premier League.

Plenty are now suggesting that United have what it takes to chase down a first title triumph in eight years, with priceless consistency being rediscovered – particularly away from home.

Maguire is pleased to be silencing critics, with the Red Devils having been written off ever since Sir Alex Ferguson headed into retirement, but he says nobody at Old Trafford is getting carried away.

The Red Devils have exceeded expectations this season to top the standings, but nobody at Old Trafford is getting carried away, according to Goal.

Harry Maguire claims Manchester United will continue to ignore the Premier League table, despite sitting top of it, with the Red Devils looking to turn their doubters into believers.

Few expected Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sides to stake a serious claim for the English top-flight crown in 2020-21.

They do, however, sit at the summit after reaching the halfway stage, with 40 points collected from 19 fixtures.
