It is still all very much to play for in the Premier League title race and whilst Manchester City now have their fate very much in their own hands, writing Arsenal off does seem a little premature.
Elsewhere, Newcastle United, Manchester United and Liverpool are all very much in the hunt for European football next season, along with the likes of Brighton and Tottenham.
At the bottom of the pile, Everton, Southampton, and Nottingham Forest are all in trouble, as are Leeds United and Leicester City.
Here are our Premier League tips for the next round of fixtures:

Premier League Week 35 Predictions
—
Bournemouth vs Chelsea – Vitality Stadium
Bournemouth ($3.75)
Chelsea ($2.1)
Draw ($3.7)
Chelsea are still seeking their first Premier League win under Frank Lampard since his return to the club, as they travel to Bournemouth. The Cherries have been in sublime form of late and they find themselves all-but safe with just a handful of games to play. Chelsea meanwhile have been abject in recent weeks and their recent defeat to Arsenal was indicative of just that. This will be a real tight one and Bournemouth could be buoyed enough to pinch a point.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.7)
1-1 Draw
Manchester City vs Leeds United – Etihad Stadium
Manchester City ($1.19)
Leeds United ($19)
Draw ($8.5)
Manchester City will be hoping they can just keep churning out the results as they take on Leeds United. City continue to fight on three fronts but there is simply no margin for error for Pep Guardiola’s side. Leeds meanwhile are in a relegation dog fight, and they will be desperate to put City under pressure from the outset in this one. This will be really tight, and Leeds will be bang up for the challenge, but City should just sneak over the line.
Betting tip: Manchester City to win the match ($1.19)
Manchester City to win 2-1
Tottenham vs Crystal Palace – Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Tottenham ($1.86)
Crystal Palace ($4.33)
Draw ($4)
Tottenham will be looking to get back to winning ways as they take on Crystal Palace. Spurs have conceded 12 goals in their last three games against Newcastle, Manchester United and Liverpool and a top 4 finish now looks out of their grasp. Palace meanwhile are mathematically safe since the return of Roy Hodgson, and they will relish playing with freedom on the road here. This will be a good watch, but Tottenham could turn it on when they need to.
Betting tip: Tottenham to win the match ($1.86)
Tottenham to win 3-2
Wolves vs Aston Villa – Molineux
Wolves ($3)
Aston Villa ($2.55)
Draw ($3.31)
Wolves and Aston Villa do battle in what promises to be an enthralling West Midlands Derby. Wolves have seen results improve at home in recent times but their 6-0 loss at Brighton last time out will be a cause for concern. Villa meanwhile were edged out by Manchester United last time out and they are still in the mix for a top 6 finish this term. The atmosphere at Molineux should be excellent and with not much to split the sides, a draw looks likely.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.31)
1-1 Draw
Liverpool vs Brentford – Anfield
Liverpool ($1.5)
Brentford ($6.5)
Draw ($5.2)
Two sides looking to finish the season strongly face off as Liverpool host Brentford. Jurgen Klopp’s side have been way off the pace this term, but recent results have elevated them up into top 6 contention, scant consolation for the reds faithful. Brentford meanwhile have impressed throughout the season, picking off some of the biggest sides in the league and they will be out to do the league double over Liverpool here. Anfield is a tough place to come, and the Bees could struggle here.
Betting tip: Liverpool to win the match ($1.5)
Liverpool to win 3 -1
Newcastle United vs Arsenal – St James’s Park
Newcastle United ($2.55)
Arsenal ($2.7)
Draw ($3.8)
Arsenal travel to Newcastle, as they hope to maintain their Premier League title bid. Toon have been sublime throughout the campaign and they will be eager to keep the pressure up on the sides around them in their top 4 bid. Arsenal meanwhile are still very much in the hunt for the league title and there is no doubt that this is their toughest test as the end of the season looms. Newcastle are favourites for this one, but Arsenal are a good side, and they could easily turn up and win here.
Betting tip: Arsenal to win the match ($2.77)
Arsenal to win 2-1
West Ham United vs Manchester United – London Olympic Stadium
West Ham United ($3.5)
Manchester United ($2.1)
Draw ($3.95)
West Ham United will be looking for another big scalp, as they take on Manchester United. The Hammers haven’t yet secured their Premier League status, but performances have been improving and they have a Europa Conference League semi-final on the horizon. Manchester United meanwhile have the FA Cup Final coming up as well as the small matter of securing their top 4 status, something they could all-but do with a win here. Manchester United are a side in good nick and they should prevail here.
Betting tip: Manchester United to win the match ($2.1)
Manchester United to win 2-1
Fulham vs Leicester City – Craven Cottage
Fulham ($2.7)
Leicester City ($2.63)
Draw ($3.7)
Fulham take on Leicester City, with the visitors fighting for their Premier League survival. The Cottagers have been in excellent form throughout the campaign and whilst their season has run out of steam a little bit, they remain a serious threat. Leicester City meanwhile have struggled throughout the season and now have Dean Smith at the helm as they try to pull away from trouble. Goals look on the cards in this one, which could be an entertaining draw.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.7)
2-2 Draw
Brighton vs Everton – AMEX Stadium
Brighton ($1.4)
Everton ($9)
Draw ($5.5)
Troubled Everton will be hoping for a minor miracle as they travel to the South Coast to take on Brighton. The Seagulls have been in excellent nick throughout the campaign and a top 6 finish looks very much within their grasp. Everton meanwhile are a side that are in a relegation dog fight and Sean Dyche will want to see his side dig deep on the road here. This will be loads closer than the odds suggest but Brighton should get over the line in front of their home fans.
Betting tip: Brighton to win the match ($1.4)
Brighton to win 2-1
Nottingham Forest vs Southampton – City Ground
Nottingham Forest ($2.1)
Southampton ($3.8)
Draw ($3.65)
A relegation six pointer concludes the calendar, as Nottingham Forest take on Southampton. Forest have been in the survival battle all season and whilst their home form has been good, they have been unable to fully pull away from trouble. Southampton meanwhile are immersed in trouble, six points adrift at the bottom and should something not change, they will be playing Championship football next season. Forest need a win and with solid home form, they could pick up a big result here.
Betting tip: Nottingham Forest to win the match ($2.1)
Nottingham Forest to win 3-1
