Has Chelsea have already clinched their Fourth Premier League Title?


Chelsea Football Club last night defeated Stoke City 4-2  to record their 13th Consecutive Win in the 2016-17 season. With this win  ,they equalled Arsenal  invincible record of 13 Consecutive win in top flight football. But the main question is that has Antonio Conte’s Chelsea have already clinched their Fourth Premier title this season.

The answer might be it is very early to tell as Chelsea lead Liverpool by only six points and six points advantage is not a big lead going into January. But the way Antonio Conte’s men are playing at present, it is very unlikely they would be uncatchable and might win the title in April itself. Their biggest challenger at the moment is Liverpool who notched up their 13th win of the season yesterday by defeating Pep Guardiola’s Man City. But no offence to Jurgen Klopp’s men, Liverpool can choke at any time especially when they travel away and that is where Chelsea can increase their advantage.

With 3-5-2 combination and the superb form of striker Diego  Costa, Antonio Conte’s men are looking very solid and most organised team that has all attributes of defeating any side in the world. But Football is a funny game, and we have seen the way Manchester United bottled their title in 2011-12 season towards the end and also Liverpool bottled it in 2013-14 season. Chelsea’s biggest test will come against the Tottenham this midweek at White Hart Lane, where Mauricio Pochettino  organized Spurs side will look to spoil Conte’s plan of creating a record 14th win of the season.


Has Chelsea have already clinched their Fourth Premier League Title?  or will Chelsea bottle their chances in their last Nineteen Game of the season? Only time will tell
