Season Defining Period?

London Derby

The big boys take on each other this month and kicking it off this week is the derby clash between Spurs & Chelsea and Arsenal take on Man.Utd. Chelsea will look at this match as a must win match after a string of poor results in the last few games. Ancelotti's job may be on the line here and this end year period could prove decisive. However, with the return of Terry, Essien and possibly Lampard, I believe they will come out tops.

Battle of the Reds

Arsenal will need to show character and strength if they're to be seriously considered for the title. Yes, they're at the top now but it's these matches that will determine if they have what it takes. Good news is Cesc may be back (or perhaps not so good since Nasri is playing superbly in place of Cesc). This is a match neither team will want to lose. My prediction a draw.

Looking at the schedule for Dec, Chelsea will need all their best players fit and ready to go because Man.Utd is next , followed by Arsenal. This could make or break their season. On the other hand, if the big boys do not beat each other, this could be good news for Man.City or Spurs (if they win their matches, of course). They have a very good chance to possibly go top of the table and may very well be a few points ahead come January.

Important times to for the W.W.W teams who occupies the last 3 places in the league. Their fixtures look win-able and if they go on a hot streak, who knows, they may even possibly find themselves in a mid-table?
