Manchester City will be lifting its seventh league title while defending champion Liverpool has one last task ahead to seal its top-four spot. With everything to play for in the final matchday, we present the preview of the same involving the top sides.

Manchester United looks to finish on a high against Wolves
United is confirmed of a second-spot finish. Meanwhile, it would take on 12th-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers away from home. Notably, United is on a 25-game unbeaten streak away from home and would hate to squander it. However, being winless in the past three games could concern club manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær, as he would be desperate for a win/draw, despite the result having no severe implications.

Arsenal has no choice but to tame Brighton and Hove Albion
Ninth-placed Arsenal is staring at a European drought, having had a horrific season so far. Taking on 16th-placed Brighton at home, not just would it have to win the game, but also rule on the result of Everton and Tottenham Hotspur to rise to the seventh and seal a European spot.

Chelsea aims at Aston Villa annihilation to seal top-four
Chelsea might have been a bit shaky in the past couple of games. Nevertheless, it is still a brute force this season and would leave no stones unturned for a top-four finish by annihilating 11th-placed Villa. While a win would confirm the third spot for The Blues, a loss could drop it to fifth.

Liverpool looks to rout Crystal Palace for the same cause
Similarly, fourth-placed Liverpool would eye top-four as it takes on 13th-placed Palace at Anfield. The Reds has made a commendable comeback in the past few games to put itself in contention for a top-four finish. While a win could allow it to finish as high as four, a loss might drop it to fifth.

Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur eyes European finish
Fifth-placed Leicester will have a task at hand when it takes on seventh-placed Tottenham at home. The Foxes would look for a win, as it could still earn it a top-four finish, while a loss would keep it at fifth. Meanwhile, a win for Spurs could push it to sixth, while a loss might drop it to ninth.

City tastes a delightful title-lifting ceremony against Everton
City would be lifting its seventh league title at Etihad on Sunday. However, before that happens, it would take on eighth-placed Everton. In the meantime, the Toffees is fighting for a European spot, as it would be desperate to tame the champion and possibly rise to the sixth spot. However, a loss could push Carlo Ancelotti's men to tenth.
