Chelsea Go Back Tp Top After Villa Draw

 

            BFL champions Chelsea are back in pole position of the league standings after a 3-1 home win over Crystal Palace this turn. The win combined by a surprise draw by previous leaders and main rivals Aston Villa at the hands of Everton allowed for a change at the top of the table.

            Goals from defenders Lewis Hall (2) and John Stones saw off Crystal Palace for the champions despite a goal from Che Adams for Palace. The victory sees the London club go back into a single point lead at the head of the table.

            Aston villa slip down to second place after dropping points at home to Everton after having to cope with several missing players in defence and in goal for the league leaders going into this week’s fixtures.

            A 1-1 provided a change in the table with Janal Musiala scoring for Villa, but a goal from Ben Chilwell for the visiting Merseysiders claimed a share of the points for Everton as they try and break into the top five positions from their safe mid table position at the moment.

            Third placed Celtic also made the most of Villa’s draw to move within a point of them after their beat relegation threatened Ipswich Town 3-1 at Parkhead. Goals from skipper Callum McGregor, Robert Lewandowski and Archie Gray closed up the three way title battle with two points covering the main contenders.

            Like Aston Villa, former CFL champions Marseilles slip down the standings slightly due to a draw as their rivals all win their matches this week. A goalless draw at PSV Eindhoven send the French side down to fourth place in the table and now trail champions and leaders Benfica by five points.

            Benfica, Real Madrid and Barcelona all pull further ahead of them as a result of wins this turn. Barcelona move into third position after a 3-0 home win over bottom of the table Monaco. Van Dijk, Gavi and Rodri getting on the scoresheet to stay with three points off the league summit.

            Real Madrid continue to keep pace with the pres season favourites for title contention and are second place after a 2-0 road win at Lyon, thanks t a brace of goals from Vazquez to remain the closest rivals to Benfica.

            Benfica stay at the top of the tree after a 3-0 home victory over Inter Milan to keep their single point lead at the top thanks to goals from Weah, and two goals from Dejan Kulevsevski.

            The two main SAFL sides Etsudiantes and Flamengo both remain unbeaten so far this season after week 15 wins. It keeps champions Estudiantes two points clear of their Brazilian rivals following their 2-0 home win over Palmeiras. Goals from Nicolas Jackson and Mohamed Kudus got the win to leave their Brazilian visitors at the foot of the table and four points from safety.

            Flamengo edged past Gremio with a 1-0 home win thanks to a goal from Felipe Anderson to stay in the hunt. Racing Club continue to fall further off the pace after slumping to their fifth loss of the season. A chastening 4-1 defeat at Boca Juniors leaves them eleven points off the title pace, effectively ending their season.

Utilities:

A player with a position of 'UTL' on your squad list can play ALL the outfield positions stated above without his skill level being affected.

You will gradually find each player’s particular favourite position by trial and error, based on performances in matches played. If you know a player who is categorised as one position and can play in another position in real-life, then we can adapt the system to make that player play in those different positions. Contact your GM beforehand and he will

be converted to that position, his player number will change but skill levels etc will remain the same.
