On May 21, the 37th round of the Premier League was over, and the situation of five competitions was as follows:

Currently, Liverpool and Arsenal have two UEFA Champions League places, and Manchester United and Tottenham are about to compete for the only way to win the UEFA Champions League place through the Europa League championship. Manchester City, Newcastle, Chelsea, Villa and Forest will compete for three Champions League places.

Manchester City had an advantage of 68 points, Newcastle, Chelsea and Villa had a 66 points, and Forest had a slight disadvantage of 65 points.

Manchester City played away against Fulham (10th) in the 38th round of the Premier League, Newcastle played against Everton (13th), Chelsea had a direct dialogue with Forest away, and Villa played away against Manchester United (16th).

In comparison, Manchester City has a clear advantage. They also have an advantage in goal difference with the leading points, so as long as they are unbeaten in the final round, they will have a high probability of protecting themselves.

And the easiest part of this round is Newcastle. Although their opponent Everton is ranked higher than Manchester United in the league, no one will think Villa will be easier than the Magpies. After Everton bid farewell to Goodison Park Stadium, his intention to fight for the last away game of the season is indeed difficult to figure out.

Round 38:

Fulham VS Manchester City

Newcastle VS Everton

Forest VS Chelsea

Manchester United VS Villa.
