Sheffield United defeated Crystal Palace 1-0 away at the Selhurst Park and are now sixth on the table, with 7 points from the last 5 games. Sheffield United are five points behind Chelsea.
Surprisingly, Manchester United have dropped to 7th place and are 6 points behind the Blues. United played a barren draw against Wolves over the weekend and have only won once in their last five games, with just four points during that timeframe.
Wolves are also in contention for top four and are level on points with Manchester United. Wolves have also won just once in their last five league matches and have five points from those games.
After 25 rounds of Premier League matches this season, the top four is still very open, and Chelsea boss Frank Lampard will be keen to end the season in fourth.
