Which Premier League club is winning the World Cup? Man City are stretching away

Ian Watson
The badges of Premier League clubs Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City with the World Cup trophy.

Man City might not be at the top of the Premier League but they are currently leading the way in Qatar…

Here’s how it works: each player is allocated the points won by their nation – but only those from games in which they’ve played. Those points are totted up, giving each club their running total.

Here are the latest standings. Points from the knock-out stage are allocated as though they were league games. Obviously.
