As we sit in the middle of the hectic festive period, the Premier League is starting to take shape and, come the end of the month, a clear picture will have been crafted to show the battles that lie ahead.
With plenty of twists and turns on the horizon, predicting the final outcomes is a stern challenge - but SportNation.bet have risen to the occasion, sharing their predictions for the final standings.
At the top of the standings, it’s great news for Liverpool as Jurgen Klopp’s side are predicted to win the title for the first time in three decades, with Pep Guaridola's Manchester City side in second.
Beneath them, Leicester City’s tremendous campaign is expected to continue with the Foxes finishing third, followed by Chelsea with Spurs and Manchester United missing out on the Champions League places.
There’s worse news for Arsenal though, who are tipped below Wolves in eighth place, while Sheffield United's remarkable start to the season is not expected to maintain, with the Blades finishing 10th and Everton sneaking into the top half of the table in ninth.
At the bottom of the standings, Aston Villa, Watford and Norwich City are tipped to suffer relegation - which is good news for Southampton, West Ham and Bournemouth, who are all narrowly expected to stay in the Premier League.
