What is more? the Blues and the Reds have recorded the same results as the other in each of their first five fixtures this term.

While Chelsea opened their campaign with a 3-0 triumph over Crystal Palace, Liverpool saw off Norwich by a similar scoreline.

Thomas Tuchel's wards then stunned Arsenal 2-0 at the Emirates, just hours after Jurgen Klopp's team recorded a 2-0 home victory over Burnley.

The third round of the fixtures saw both teams square off at Anfield where they shared the spoils.

The west Londoners went on to hit three past Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge, a result replicated by the Merseysiders against Leeds United at Elland Road.

And on Saturday, as Liverpool thrashed Crystal Palace 3-0 at Anfield, Chelsea recorded the same result a day later against Tottenham Hotspur.

Chelsea now sit atop the standings for alphabetical reasons - but could win the league by that technicality.

SunSport reports should there be nothing separating the two teams at the end of the season, a one-off game would be needed to settle their final positions.

Man United, meanwhile, adds further confusion to the mix having also secured 13 points so far after winning four and drawing one of their first five matches.

United, who boast a lethal attack are the highest goalscorers thus far with 13 goals but have conceded four times to sit behind Chelsea and Liverpool on goal difference.
