1. Arsenal (All they want for Xmas is a runout at Emirates)
2. Manchester United (No traps here, just Derby)
3. Chelsea (Quietly, Blues 6-1-2 in league under Grant)
4. Portsmouth (Harder to believe they once bagged six)
5. Liverpool (Time to sustain — Benitez’s achilles heel)
6. Manchester City (Can start Hatton’s day right with win)
7. Everton (Howard may be hidden key to Europe hopes)
8. Aston Villa (Carew-Campbell clash one to watch)
9. Blackburn (Bentley has everyone’s attention, expectation)
