Premier League: Three of top four chasers in action

By
  • Chelsea, Man Utd & Arsenal look to keep top-four chase alive
  • Huddersfield v Manchester United (16:00 EAT)
  • Defeat for Man Utd would all but end top four hopes
  • Chelsea will go third with win over Watford (16:00 EAT)
  • Arsenal v Brighton (16:30 EAT) – defeat could put Gunners out of contention

Who needs what?

Chelsea will clinch their Champions League place if they beat Watford and Arsenal & Man Utd both fail to win.

Arsenal will be eliminated from CL contention if they lose against Brighton and Chelsea win.

Manchester United will be eliminated from Champions League contention if they draw at Huddersfield and Chelsea win (though goal difference means if both teams draw, United are most likely eliminated barring an eight-goal swing on the final day), or if they lose and either Chelsea avoid defeat or Arsenal win.

(Again, goal difference means it’s most likely over for United if they lose, whatever happens elsewhere).

Huddersfield vs Manchester United
