Another weekend of Premier League action is upon us, and it could be a decisive one in terms of which direction the title will be heading come the end of the season.
Chelsea entertain the division's in-form side in Manchester United at Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening, while fallen champions Manchester City take on West Ham United hoping to keep afloat in the top four.
Due to FA Cup commitments, Arsenal will have even more catching up to do following the latest set of games, but Gunners supporters will no doubt be keeping a close eye on events as they unfold in West London.
Here, Sports Mole takes a look ahead to the 33rd round of fixtures, with a selection of statistics from all seven games taking place to whet the appetite.
