Today, seven matches were played in the English Premier League. Having already achieved their 26th victory this season, Chelsea moved closer to the champions title by defeating Fulham 3-1 in this round. The London team can secure the title in the next round.
The particularly turbulent Liverpool disappointed their fans and coaches once again in the English championship after loud victories in the Champions League this season. This time, the legendary English club managed to lose to Crystal Palace, currently in 17th place in the championship, with a score of 1-0. After this failure, R.Benitez's team's chances of achieving the coveted fourth place became even more complicated and may soon turn into theoretical ones.
However, Everton, currently in fourth place, did not fully capitalize on Liverpool's failure, as they failed to beat Birmingham. Nevertheless, D.Moyes's team are ahead of Liverpool with a safe four-point distance and still have a match in reserve. In the next game, Norwich secured an important victory in the fight for survival among the strongest, defeating Charlton unexpectedly.
