3 Premier League clubs that could potentially benefit from this international break

The club-football season has come to a short break as the players have gone to fulfil their commitments to their national squads.

In most cases, an international break is not desired by a football club, as the players could be vulnerable to injuries playing for their countries. Also, a break at this time with just a few more weeks to go to the end of the season will add to the frustration of the clubs.

However, there are a few clubs which will actually be happy with the international break at this point in time. With most of the club-games resuming only at the end of March, a good break is needed for players who are recovering from injuries. Clubs in a bad run of form right now will also get some time to recover before the start of the business end of the season.

On that note, here are 3 clubs which could benefit from the international break right now.

#1 Liverpool

Liverpool benefit the most as this break could halt the momentum of rivals Manchester City

Although they have played 1 game lesser than Manchester City, Liverpool are the toppers of the table as the season goes into an international break. However, what would benefit Liverpool the most is the fact that this break could halt the momentum of rivals Manchester City.

Manchester City is in ominous form, and with this form, they are sure to go ahead of Liverpool in the Premier League race. This break could actually not work for them as their momentum would be disturbed, and also, a few players could be exposed to injuries. Hence, it could actually be an advantage for Liverpool who are very close to Manchester City on the table.

#2 Manchester United

The injured players at Manchester United would benefit from the timely break

Manchester United have endured a rough week as they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Arsenal in the Premier League and also crashed out of the FA Cup with a shocking loss to Wolves. Most importantly, there are a lot of players at the club who are recovering from injuries, and hence this break would serve as a good time for them to recuperate.

With a tough month coming up in April, the international break could actually help the Red Devils in their race for a top-4 spot in Premier League.

#3 Chelsea

With the loss to Everton, Chelsea is slowly losing chances of cementing a top-4 spot in the Premier League. Their performances have been dismal and they have struggled to dominate games in recent times.

Hence, this break would be an opportunity for them to sit down and assess their situation before they go into an important phase of the season ahead. Also, the position of manager Maurizio Sarri can also be considered in the break.
