Alphabet decides Premier League placement: FC Arsenal vs. FC Chelsea!
A strange scenario is causing a stir in the Premier League: Arsenal FC and Chelsea FC are tied on points and goals in the table. With 25 points each from 13 games, the goal difference of 26:14 is identical, and even the direct duel ended in a 1:1 draw. In such a situation, one wonders how the ranking in the table is determined. According to information from laola1.at the answer is surprising: the alphabet decides! Since “Arsenal” comes ahead of “Chelsea” with A, the London club leads the table, which will disappoint the fans of the blue-clad club.
This regulation has historical roots that go back to 1914, when the club name was changed to Arsenal FC. If a tie occurs again at the end of the season, a decisive game on neutral ground will be scheduled, but this has never happened in the past. Meanwhile, the Spanish La Liga is also developing its own dynamic. FC Barcelona currently leads the table with 34 points, followed by Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid, who are also performing well, like them BBC reported.
