United 7 points from title

With only 4 rounds to go in the English Premier League, Manchester United need 7 more points to retain the title thanks to their massive goal difference.

Chelsea are currently second on the log, 5 points behind United, after a disappointing 1-1 draw with Wigan. Anything less than maximum points from now on will just make it easier for the Red Devils to claim their second successive league title.

Arsenal are 9 points behind and will be out of the running if United win their next game. The Gunners play Reading, Derby, Everton and Sunderland.

Chelsea face Everton on Thursday, before their crunch match against United next Saturday. They also have Newcastle and Bolton.

Besides the big one at Stamford Bridge, United play Blackburn, West Ham and Wigan.
