The English Premier League matches will continue today and will end today since it is the 38th matchday of the season, it has been a great season all along.
Despite being the last day of the league, there are lots of things that could still happen in the competition today with the winner of the league undecided, some UEFA spots can still be toggled and two teams are still struggling not to get relegated.
I do be taking you through the crucial points on the league table because there are still lots of things that could still happen even on the last day of the league
The league title.
Manchester City failed to secure the league title during their encounter against Westham and that has put the team in a tight condition to win the English Premier League as they are separated by a point from Liverpool. We wouldn't have been talking about all this if Liverpool had won that encounter against Tottenham, Manchester City would have been sitting beneath them after that draw they played against Westham united.
The London team kept Liverpool's hopes of winning four titles alive this season after that draw at the London Stadium and now the English Premier League title is swinging between the big boys in the league this season with Aston Villa serving as the major determinant of which team will win the league title.
With just one match left, an upset today can turn things around in the league and Liverpool will be depending on the result from Manchester City vs Aston Villa match if they will get a chance to win the league.
The match comes with a tricky decision for Aston Villa, the club has a clause on Jack Grealish contract which is getting the sum of £15m if Manchester City wins the league with the Grealish. The forward joined City from Aston Villa for £100m and that clause on the contract would do Aston Villa a lot of good if they allow Manchester City to win the league by losing their match today against Pep Guardiola's side.
On the other hand Liverpool legend, Steven Gerrard who is currently Aston Villa manager would want to see his former club win the Premier League but would he do that at the expense of the £15m the club would get if they win the league?
It is a tight decision for the teams involved and I want to believe that the teams would rather play for honor than play to favor a particular them or not because no club is guaranteed anything. Liverpool wouldn't automatically be handed the league even if Aston Villa try to stop Manchester City because they also have Wolves to play against which wouldn't be an easy one as well judging from the fact the team is struggling with injuries and there is still a Uefa Champions League final ahead later this month.
Aside from the honor, Aston Villa has the opportunity to make more money if they choose to stop Manchester City. The club will move up on the table and will automatically get more money than their current standing on the table.
The final day matches mean a lot to the teams and I believe every team will put in their best to end the season will great performance. To be realistic, I don't see Aston Villa stopping Manchester City whether they play for honor or not because Pep Guardiola's side knows what's at risk and wouldn't be going easy on Aston Villa in that encounter. The Premier League is the only title left to be won for City and it would be disappointing if they finish the season without silverware.
Liverpool will grind out victory at all costs and I see a lot of suspense today in Premier League, it might go down as one of the unforgettable seasons in the history of the league.
The Uefa spots battle.
With Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea having their ticket to UCL secured, Tottenham and Arsenal still have the opportunity of switching positions if Arsenal gets to win and Spurs do not which I don't see happening because Conte's men would want to get the spot by going hard on Norwich City.
Tottenham will face the relegated Norwich side while Arsenal would battle against Everton which I believe is a tight fixture for Mikel Arteta or things might just remain the way they are on the table even after the match.
Manchester United could lose their Europa league ticket today, especially with the absence of Ronaldo in attack due to a hip injury. The encounter between United and Crystal Palace is a must win for Manchester United if they want to play in the Europa League next season, Westham could drop them into the Conference league if the London side wins their last match and United doesn't.
Relegation battle.
Everton got out of the relegation zone after that come back against Crystal Palace, Leeds and Burnley are the teams involved in the battle of avoiding relegation.
It would be a hard one to predict because both teams aren't playing against easy opponents in their final games of the season. Leeds would play against Brentford and Burnley against Newcastle, both sides need to go the extra mile with their performance if they want to get something out of their fixtures. Burnley and Leeds are separated by goal difference, it is going to be a suspenseful one there as well.
Regardless of whatever happens on the final day, the English Premier League doesn't stop giving you this electrifying performance. Let's hope the best teams get the perfect rewards for their struggles this season.
This is a big decision for Gerrad to make but let be honest the money will really do good for them so I expect them to lose today though
