Five bold end of the season predictions for the Premier League

It seems only like yesterday when a host of top managers including likes of Pellegrini and Mourinho,took in charge of their new clubs.It was always going to be an exciting season, and we have not been disappointed yet.With Chelsea's shock defeat at Villa park and Manchester United's categorical annihilationat the hands of high flying Liverpool, the title race is indeed wide open. At the bottom of the table, things are close with Fulham and Cardiffin dire straits.With only a couple of months left now,here are my top 5 bold predictions for this campaign:

#1 Man City to finish third

It might be too harsh to say that City have been "chokers" but indeed they have lost the most important game of the season against Chelsea. Shock defeats at Cardiff and Wigan in the FA cup only corroborates this point. Although they have 3 games in hand, but having games in hand isn't always an advantage. It comes with added pressure and leaves no room for error. With City yet to play Liverpool, Everton and Arsenal all AWAY, I predict Man City to finish third this season.

#2 Luis Suarez to top assists and goals tally

It's hardly bold isn't it? Liverpool Suarez has been in scintillating form.At 27, Suarez at his peak, there is no reason why Suarez cannot top both assists and Goals tally.The Uruguayan has 25 goals and 10 assists already, and I can only see the him adding more to it.

#3 Arsenal to finish fourth

It would be a great dissapointment for Arsene Wenger's side who in pole positions for the League Title in the entire first half of the season.But it was always going to be terribly difficult for Arsenal with their almost draconian fixtures.Arsenal lack a Top striker and have been inconsistent in big games. I can't see them finishing above either Liverpool Or Chelsea or Manchester City.

#4 Fulham to escape relegation

This one might appear a bit unrealistic, perhaps ludicrous for some, but I'm backing Fulham to Avoid Relegation this term. Fulham have played all the top 4 sides already and with players like Parker ,Holtby and Konstantinos Mitroglou, I'm going for what might be the greatest relegation escape adventure in a longtime.

#5 Chelsea to win the Premier League

The last time Chelsea lost away, it was away at Stoke with Liverpool loanee- Assaidi securing a late win for Stoke. They went on a winning streak which made them the title favourites. In my opinion,Mourinho is too clever to let this slip. Hazard has been as good as anyone this season and Chelsea have enough strength in depth togo all the way through.
