Watford v Man City
The Journo: Watford put up an incredible fight on Monday against Chelsea and will do the same to cap off a decent season against City. I think they could hold out for a draw.
The Ex-Pro: City need to win to ensure that they remain in 3
rd spot. Watford don’t have much to play for having secured their survival and the news of their Coaches sacking will have unsettled the squad.
The Fan: Watford are currently on a poor run of form and are currently sitting on 2 points less than last season. City will definitely want to finish the season on a high.
Burnley v West Ham
The Journo: Burnley should continue their impressive ome record and defeat a shakey West Ham side.
The Ex Pro: Burnley’s home form has been near impeccable. Their defense at home is almost unstoppable and they will want to put on a similar show for the home crowd on the final day.
The Fan: Burnley have been very strong at home this season, I can’t see a team like West Ham, who have struggled this season, beating them.
Leicester v Bournemouth
The Journo: Craig Shakespeare will want to cap this season off with a win to prove himself as a permanent fixture. They can definitely beat a Bournemouth time with a poor away record.
The Ex Pro: Both teams are safe and I can certainly see goals in this game, they will be evenly matched and we are in for an exciting game but I just can’t pick a winner. I’m going with a draw.
The Fan: Leicester have proved that they can win without Ranieri. Bournemouth just haven’t impressed me this season and I can’t see them beating the Foxes on the road.
Man United v Crystal Palace
The Journo: I can Only see United Drawing here. The young team that Mourinho will field have just not been up to scratch of late.
The Ex Pro: I just have to go with a home loss here. Mourinho is going to field a young squad who have not been performing well. An on form Palace should win it by the odd goal.
The Fan: United have had a whopping 15 draws this season with 10 of those coming at home. Mourinho won’t be fielding a strong side but they should be able to hold out for the draw.
Liverpool v Middlesbrough
The Journo: Liverpool are just too strong for Boro. If they manage a win here they could still finish 3
rd dependent on the Man City and Arsenal results.
The Ex Pro: Boro seem to have accepted their relegation a few weeks back and will not be motivated or strong enough to beat a Liverpool team with everything to play for.
The Fan: The reds easily brushed West ham aside. Their home form has been exceptional this season and they should easily dispatch a relegated Boro side.
Chelsea v Sunderland
The Journo: The newly crowned champions will without a doubt cap off their season with a win against relegated Sunderland. I’m predicting goals goals goals!
The Ex Pro: Chelsea could play their 3
rd team and they would still beat this Sunderland side.
The Fan: Sunderland can’t buy a win to save their lives. They are on horrendous form, lack motivation and regardless who Conte decides to play, a win is surely guaranteed.
Arsenal v Everton
The Journo: Arsenal have a lot to play for here. They can still finish top 4 depending on a few other results and will need to bring their A-game
The Ex Pro: Arsenal have looked good with their new formation but Everton have shown that they can be a really strong team. Both sides are capable of winning this but I can see it fizzling out into a draw.
The Fan: Everton away to the big sides have just not been great. Lukaku seems to be flat in big games and with Arsenal on a high and looking to secure a Champions league spot, they are looking like a solid contender under their new formation
Southampton v Stoke
The Journo: Southampton have impressed me this season while Stoke have just been below average. The Potters minds will already be on vacation and I can see them getting thumped here
The Ex Pro: Southampton played well and should have beaten United on Wednesday. Stoke were hammered 4-1 at home by Arsenal and I don’t think they will be up for the task this weekend.
The Fan: I can see this being a relatively tight game but Southampton should edge it thanks to their home advantage.
Swansea v West Brom
The Journo: This should be a great game in different circumstances but both teams don’t have much to play for. A somewhat boring draw is most likely on the cards.
The Ex Pro: Paul Clement has done a brilliant job to keep Swansea in the Premier League and West Brom have been appalling since securing safety.
The Fan: Swansea’s home form is the reason they are out of the relegation zone. They have improved under Paul Clement and should beat a West Brom side who have not won in 7 league games!
Hull City v Spurs
The Journo: Spurs will want to finish their impressive season with a win and Hull are the perfect opponents for them to inflict full damage on before the Tigers go down
The Ex Pro: It’s a cruel world where Hull, who have not played so badly this season, have been relegated. Marco Silva will want his players to go out with a bang and I can see an upset for Spurs who don’t have much to play for.
The Fan: Spurs will not make the same mistake as last season by losing on the final day of the Premier League. They should easily beat a relegated Hull City.
