Typically, the New Year is welcomed with the promise of hope and change, yet the Premier League title race looks set to run an increasingly familiar course -- Manchester City winning at a canter.
One game past the halfway mark, Pep Guardiola's side command an eight and nine point lead over chasers Chelsea and Liverpool respectively -- a not insurmountable climb, but one that looks increasingly daunting with each passing game.

A federal judge on Friday blocked President Donald Trump’s administration from enforcing most of his executive order on elections against the vote-by-mail states Washington and Oregon, in the latest blow to Trump’s efforts to require documentary proof of citizenship to vote and to require that all ballots be received by Election Day.
