The final day of the Premier League season is upon us! While the title and relegation battles are settled, the race for Champions League qualification is more exciting than ever.
The curtain falls on the Premier League season this Sunday, and while the title and relegation matters have already been resolved, the battle for Champions League football promises a thrilling finale.
With just one match left to play, five teams remain in the hunt for the final three Champions League slots — and the drama could not be more intense.
Thanks to the Premier League’s impressive UEFA coefficient, England will send six teams to next season’s Champions League. Liverpool and Arsenal have already punched their tickets, while Tottenham will join them after lifting the Europa League trophy, salvaging what had been a turbulent campaign.

With only three points separating five teams, and goal difference likely to play a decisive role, every second will matter on Sunday.

Mashemeji Derby to Be Played Out of Nairobi as Gor Mahia Confirm Date and Venue
Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards fans have to brace themselves for a first Mashemeji Derby outside Nairobi after K’Ogalo revealed the date and venue for the high stakes clash.
Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea: Possibly the headline clash of the day, this match pits Serbian defender Nikola Milenković and his Forest teammates against Chelsea in a direct showdown for a Champions League place. Forest will need to win — and possibly rely on other results — to leapfrog their way into the top five.
Newcastle United vs Everton: On paper, this appears to be the most straightforward of the fixtures. Newcastle, sitting fourth, will be confident of taking care of business at home against a mid-table Everton side.
Aston Villa vs Manchester United (Away): Villa face the most difficult test, traveling to Old Trafford to take on a United side that’s often unpredictable but dangerous at home. With Champions League football on the line, expect fireworks.
Manchester City vs Fulham (Away): City only need a draw to guarantee their top-four place but will be aiming for all three points in London to close out the season strong.

Mashemeji Derby Venue Change Leaves Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards Fans in Dilemma After Early Ticket Purchase
