Liverpool may hold a commanding lead at the top of the Premier League table at the minute, but that isn’t the case in a new alternative table released.
The table, released by bettingexpert, is based on Boxing Day results since the Premier League started back in 1992, with Manchester United coming out on top ahead of the Reds.
Arsenal and Tottenham make up the rest of the top four, while Chelsea sit in fifth - ahead of Manchester City and West Ham who sit sixth and seventh respectively.
At the bottom, Norwich sit at the foot of the table, with Wolves and Sheffield United joining them in the bottom three.
United, who will take on Newcastle tomorrow afternoon, have on average achieved 2.52 points per match on Boxing Day, with Liverpool on 2.13, Arsenal on 2 and Tottenham on 1.86.
Chelsea have achieved 1.80, with West Ham securing 1.50 and Crystal Palace, who sit in ninth, averaging 1.22 points.
United also prevail on average goals scored on Boxing Day, giving their fans the gift of 2.6 goals per game – the only Premier League side to average over two per match, with reigning Premier League champions City scoring 1.68.
Chelsea have scored 1.64 goals on games played on December 26, with Spurs netting 2.0 goals, West Ham bagging 1.94 and Palace scoring 0.66 times.
Surprisingly, though, it is Palace who top the table of fewest goals let in, with the Eagles conceding just 0.66 goals per game immediately after Christmas.
