Power Ranking All 20 EPL Teams Heading Into Week 9

Burnley cannot catch a break, and they are the only club that has yet to win a single match this season. They took a harsh 3-1 loss against West Ham United last week, which just reminded everyone that they are not a threat to anyone.

Queens Park Rangers have only won one match all season, which was against Sunderland in Week 3. That sole win may be the only pride of their season, because since then they have lost six matches -- more than any team in the league. Last week they lost by one to Liverpool, which saves them from being the in last but reminds others that they are easy to beat.

Sunderland has had a rough time this season. Out of the eight matches played, they only won once. That includes their brutal 8-0 loss against Southampton. They take on Arsenal this weekend, so it won't be getting any easier for them.

Newcastle United are sitting atop relegation territory, which is rather unfortunate for them. They beat Leicester over the weekend, which was their first win in six matches, but there is still a lot they need to work on.

Aston Villa had a strong start, but they soon fell back into old Aston Villa ways. They have lost their last four matches including a 3-0 loss to Everton over the weekend. They still have time to improve, but they will need to play their best against Queens Park Rangers this week.

Hull City haven’t had too bad of a start to the season with only two losses so far. This past weekend they drew against Arsenal, which was quite a feat. Unfortunately, they haven’t won too many matches and face Liverpool this weekend, which may be a challenge.

West Bromwich Albion have been quite unpredictable this season. They’ve won, lost and drawn pretty evenly. Their two wins of the season have come in their last four matches, which means their form is improving. If they defeat Crystal Palace this weekend, they can continue rising to the top.

Tottenham Hotpur have won three of their eight matches, but they’ve also lost three. In their last six matches they have only won once, which drops their club to a much lower ranking. The Spurs need to defeat Newcastle United this weekend if they hope to return to form.

Leicester City are one of the three clubs that was promoted to the Premier League this season, and they have been quite impressive. Unfortunately, they took a loss against Newcastle last week, which keeps them from climbing the ranks.

Crystal Palace are not doing that well overall, but their form has been improving a lot in their most recent matches. They have won two of their last four matches and have a chance to prove their skill against West Brom this week.

Swansea City may be closer to the top of the EPL ranking table than to the bottom, but they have only won one of their last six matches. This weekend they took a 2-0 loss against Stoke City. If they hope to move up they will need to beat Leicester this weekend.

Everton are in the lower half on the EPL rankings at the moment, but their form has been improving. They’ve won two of their last five matches, and they have the ability to continue winning moving forward. This weekend they face Burnley, which gives them an ‘easy’ win if they can manage it.

Manchester United cannot seem to catch a break. The draw against West Bromwich last weekend was so close it felt like a steal. They need to win more if they hope to move to the top, but they face league leaders Chelsea this weekend, which will be a challenge.

Stoke City have been playing well this season, but they still have a lot to work on. They’ve won three of their last six matches, including their win over Swansea this past weekend. They face Southampton this weekend, which will be a real challenge.

Arsenal have had a decent start to the season, but they have more draws than wins. This is something they need to change. They face Sunderland this weekend, which should be the win they need to move up the rankings.

Liverpool beat Queens Park Rangers 3-2 this weekend, but it was not an easy result. They’ll need to work on their form to earn more wins if they want to become a more powerful team. They can start by crushing Hull City this week.

West Ham are doing very well this season and have found themselves in fourth place in the Premier league. They defeated Burnley 3-1 over the weekend, which proves their form is great. However, they face Manchester City this weekend, and that will be a bigger challenge.

Manchester City are still a top contender for the title this season. They have won five matches on the year, including their last three. A win against West Ham United over the weekend would help City continue their streak and edge closer to the top.

Southampton have won five of their last six matches including an 8-0 win over Sunderland this past weekend. They are playing some of the best soccer of their existence, and a win against Stoke City this weekend would only help them top their form. Their only threat seems to be Chelsea.

Chelsea are the only team that remains undefeated, and they continued to impress with a win over Crystal Palace last week. They top the power rankings due to their clear superiority. They need to defeat Manchester United this weekend if they hope to remain in first.
