You BetMore upsets possible - but unlikely this weekend for Liverpool or Chelsea
With Liverpool and Chelsea in control of their own destinies, Norwich and Sunderland could pay
Manchester City blinked first in the final stages of the English Premier League title race, losing at Liverpool and then drawing at home to Sunderland, which means they are the only team in the top three who do not have their destiny in their own hands.
City's slip-up against Sunderland was a timely reminder of the dangers that lurk even in the lower reaches of the table and Saturday it is Chelsea's turn to host Sunderland, while on Sunday Liverpool go to Norwich.
On average this season, the top three have dropped points against opponents from the bottom half of the table every three and a half games, which means there is still time for another nasty surprise or two before the championship is decided.
Most of Saturday's Premier League games are tough to call, but on Sunday the battle for fourth place looks likely to drive Arsenal and Everton to victory
Recent results suggest Liverpool will record an 11th straight win at Norwich. In fact, Luis Suarez could beat the Canaries almost single-handedly, it seems.
Liverpool have run away with the last four matches between the sides, by scorelines of 3-0 (away), 5-2 (away), 5-0 (home) and 5-1 (home), with Suarez scoring 11 of their 18 goals.
Norwich are by no means the only struggling side to have suffered against Suarez, whose scoring stats are heavily tilted towards games against teams from the bottom half of the Premier League.
