The English Premier League is now just two matchdays away from the end of the season, and the battles at both the top and bottom of the table are still incredibly close.
The title race has been one of the most entertaining in recent memory as all three of Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool have been neck-and-neck throughout the entirety of the season. While Liverpool have dropped slightly behind going into these final matches, any of the three could still end up victors of this year’s Premier League.
With this, we’re going to take a look at our top tips and booking codes for the upcoming Premier League title race matches:
Fulham vs Manchester City
Despite being top of the goalscoring charts for almost the entirety of the season, Haaland’s recent form had allowed other players to catch up to the striker’s tally. However, the Norwegian returned to the goals with a penalty against Luton and has gone on to score six in his last three league appearances, taking him to 25 in the league for the season.
Manchester City will be desperate for a victory against Fulham as they still trail Arsenal by a point, albeit they do hold a game in hand over the Gunners, and whenever City win Haaland seems to be on the scoresheet, and we fancy the striker to continue his fantastic goalscoring form.
Erling Haaland to score anytime, 1.55
Manchester United vs Arsenal
Arsenal currently lead the league table by a point but with Manchester City holding a game in hand the Gunners know that they will not be able to drop any points if they want a chance of winning their first title in 20 years.
The first of their final two fixtures sees them travel to Old Trafford to face Manchester United, a game that would normally give Arsenal an extremely tough task. Despite Arsenal winning just one of their last 16 league visits to Old Trafford, Man United are in an awful run of form that will certainly see the Gunners enter the game as favourites.
Man United have won just two of their last eight games, these coming as a penalty win over Coventry City and a late victory over Sheffield United, and they were most recently battered 4-0 by Crystal Palace.
Man United have now conceded 55 goals this season and alongside Arsenal’s brilliant 88 goals scored, the most in the league, we fancy Arsenal to win this one with over 2.5 goals to be scored.
Arsenal to win & over 2.5 goals, 1.64
Aston Villa vs Liverpool
Liverpool’s title hopes look incredibly thin going into these final games of the season as they have dropped five points behind Arsenal, meaning a win for the Gunners in either of their final two games would leave Liverpool unable to win the title.
This comes after Liverpool drew two and lost two matches in the league, sandwiched around a win against Fulham, in April. While they will know their title hopes are out of their hands with Arsenal needing just a win to kick Liverpool out of the race, Jurgen Klopp’s men are sure to fight to the very end and attempt to get two wins from two and pull off a fantastic league win.
However, they face an Aston Villa side who are still fighting with Tottenham for a place in the top four, leaving this as a potentially difficult match-up for Liverpool. Villa have been fantastic at home throughout this season, losing just three times at Villa Park in the league, and while we don’t think they will pull off victory over Liverpool in this one, we believe that this game will end in a stalemate as both sides battle it out to try and achieve their objectives.
Aston Villa & Liverpool to draw, 4.65
