Five teams - Manchester City, Chelsea, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, and Nottingham Forest - are competing fiercely for just three remaining Champions League spots.
We dive into the stats, analyse the odds, and make some savvy bets as we break down the potential outcomes of selected games.
Fulham v Manchester City, Sunday, 16:00 BST
Following Brighton’s midweek victory over Liverpool, Fulham’s hopes of European qualification have ended. Nevertheless, Marco Silva’s side will be eager to play for pride when Manchester City visit Craven Cottage.
Unlike Fulham, City have much at stake, knowing that a draw will be enough to secure Champions League football next season. The Cityzens have dominated this fixture, winning their last 17 matches against Fulham across all competitions, and enter as strong favourites to claim all three points.
The last time Manchester City visited Craven Cottage, they secured a 4-0 victory and will be confident of producing a similar result, especially given they have won their final league game of the season nine times in the last eleven campaigns.
Tip: Manchester City to win @3/5
Bet explanation: This bet wins if Manchester City beat Fulham regardless of the score line.
Liverpool v Crystal Palace, Sunday, 16:00 BST
Two teams who are still hungover from their success this season, Liverpool and Crystal Palace face off in the final league game of the season.
Liverpool, already crowned Premier League champions, aim to finish the season on a strong note and have been formidable at home, winning 15 of their last 17 final home games of the season.
Crystal Palace cannot finish lower than 12th but a victory could see them climb into the top half of the table. With Liverpool having scored two or more goals in a Premier League record 31 games this season, an open and exciting match is anticipated.
Bet explanation: This bet wins if there are at least three goals in the game between Liverpool and Crystal Palace.
Manchester United v Aston Villa, Sunday, 16:00 BST
Aston Villa have demonstrated impressive late-season resilience, keeping their hopes of Champions League qualification alive. To secure a spot, they must win their final game and hope other results fall in their favour.
The two teams enter this clash in contrasting form; Manchester United have lost their last match, while Villa have won their last three games without conceding a goal. Historically, Villa have struggled against United, with only Everton (42) having more Premier League defeats to a single opponent than Villa’s 40 losses to the Red Devils. Additionally, Unai Emery’s side have managed just one win in their last 26 away league games on the final day of the season.
However, Manchester United are a side in turmoil following their recent defeat in the Europa League that offered them hope. Given this, Villa should be well-positioned to defy history and add to United’s woes with a convincing performance.
Tip: Draw or Aston Villa @11/50
Bet explanation: This bet wins if Aston Villa win or draw with Manchester United.
Newcastle v Everton, Sunday, 16:00 BST
Since Everton secured their first Premier League victory under David Moyes on January 19, only four teams have amassed more points than the Toffees, who have collected 28 in that period.
Among the current top five sides, Newcastle have conceded the most goals, allowing 46 in 37 games. Everton have shown great resilience under Moyes, proving they can compete at any venue, as demonstrated by their 1-0 win over Nottingham in April.
The Toffees have scored in each of their last three matches, and with Newcastle expected to adopt an attacking approach, Everton could seize the opportunity. In their last three meetings, Everton remain unbeaten and have consistently posed a challenge for Newcastle.
Tip: Everton Total Goals Over 0.5@33/50
Bet explanation: This bet wins if Everton score at least a goal against Newcastle.
Nottingham Forest v Chelsea, Sunday, 16:00 BST
The fixture between Nottingham Forest and Chelsea is the standout match of the weekend, with the winner likely to secure Champions League football next season.
Chelsea hold the edge in their head-to-head record, as Nottingham Forest have won just one of their last seven Premier League encounters against the Blues—a 1-0 victory at Stamford Bridge in September 2023.
This promises to be a tightly contested game between two sides desperate for a win, reflected in the odds on bet365: 2/1 for a Nottingham victory and 6/5 for Chelsea. Given Nottingham Forest have gone seven Premier League games without keeping a clean sheet, backing Chelsea to score at least once appears a sensible choice.
Tip: Chelsea Total Goals Over 0.5@9/50
Bet explanation: This bet wins if Chelsea score at least a goal against Nottingham.
Tottenham v Brighton, Sunday, 16:00 BST
The last time Brighton and Tottenham met, the Seagulls staged a thrilling comeback from 2-0 down to win 3-2 in an exhilarating match. With so much at stake for the visitors, a similarly exciting encounter is expected.
Although Spurs currently sit 17th in the Premier League, they have scored more goals (63) than they have conceded (61), creating and conceding chances in equal measure, which often leads to high-scoring games.
Following their Europa League triumph, Tottenham’s celebrations are expected to continue into the weekend. Meanwhile, Brighton, who need a win to secure eighth place and keep their hopes of European football alive, will be eager to capitalise. Goals seem a safe bet here, with Brighton scoring at least twice in 10 of their last 13 Premier League matches, and their last four head-to-head clashes all featuring at least three goals with both teams finding the net.
Tip: 3+ Total Goals/Both Teams to Score @53/100
Bet explanation: This bet wins if there are at least three goals in the game and each of Tottenham and Brighton score at least a goal.
Wolves v Brentford, Sunday, 16:00 BST
Following their thrilling 5-3 victory in the reverse fixture, Brentford are aiming to complete their first league double over Wolves since the 2015-16 Championship season. The Bees are motivated, chasing 8th place, which could potentially secure them a European spot.
They face a Wolves side struggling for form, having lost all three of their May matches after an unbeaten run of seven Premier League games across March and April (6W, 1D). For a safer yet valuable bet, backing Brentford to win or draw at 11/25 looks promising. Wolves have endured a poor record on the final day of the season, losing each of their last seven final league matches by a combined score of 19-2.
Brentford’s attacking prowess has been impressive this season, scoring 65 Premier League goals—their highest top-flight tally since 1937/38—with the best conversion rate in the league at 15.2%. Meanwhile, Wolves have struggled to maintain consistency, suffering multiple losing streaks throughout the campaign.
Given these factors, Brentford appear well-placed to secure at least a point and continue their strong finish to the season.
Bet explanation: This bet wins if Brentford win or draw with Wolves.
