Liverpool vs Arsenal, Sunday 9 April, 16:30
Top of the table Arsenal travel to Anfield this Sunday to face Liverpool, a stadium the Gunners have failed to come home with all three points in the league since 2012.
Mikel Arteta’s side sit comfortably at the top of the Premier League, eight points ahead of Manchester City, albeit the Manchester side have a game in hand.
The Gunners still have to face Manchester City, Chelsea, Newcastle and of course Liverpool, so they will know the importance of picking up points against these sides if they want to lift the title come May. A win at Anfield will provide the leaders with a major physiological boost going into the final eight matches.
Leicester City vs AFC Bournemouth, Saturday 8 April, 15:00
A relegation clash awaits in the Premier League as both Leicester and Bournemouth sit in the bottom three, and are fighting for their lives to remain in the top flight.
The Foxes have recently parted ways with Brendan Rodgers, and they are currently eight games without a win in all competitions.
The Cherries have somewhat steadied the ship in recent times, as they have won twice in their last four games, including a 1-0 victory against Liverpool at home. Two points separate Leicester in 19th and Bournemouth in 18th.
Leicester could find themselves adrift if they don’t pick up a result here, while it’s must not lose for Bournemouth ahead of several six pointer relegation clashes. It’s all to play for at the King Power Stadium.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Brighton & Hove Albion, Saturday 8 April, 15:00
The fight for top four is well and truly on, and two sides battling it out for a place in Europe next season meet this Saturday at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Seagulls currently sit four points behind Spurs in sixth place, but they do have two games in hand over their opponents, so a victory could prove vital come the end of the season.
Spurs come into this fixture with back-to-back draws in their last two games against strugglers Southampton and Everton, so interim manager Cristian Stellini will know that his side will have to pick up some good form to ensure European football for next season.
Spurs are desperate for the win to keep the pressure on the top four, while Brighton will seriously prove their European credentials with three points.
