Projected tables
Current PPG
Manchester City is on track to take the crown with 89 points based on their existing averages for goals scored, conceded and points per game – some 16 ahead of runners-up Manchester United.
Leicester is set for third, ahead of Chelsea’s Thomas Tuchel – who is narrowly edging West Ham on goal difference for the final Champions League spot.
jurgen Klopp’s champions would finish the season above Aston Villa and Everton in sixth on 63 points. That 36-point drop-off from last season’s tally would rank as the third-worst title defence in Premier League history – behind only Chelsea (2015/16) and Leicester (2016/17).
