Southampton have already been sent packing for the Championship and much of the focus during Saturday’s Premier League action will be on the teams who could join them.
Nottingham Forest and Everton can both make big statements in their matches against Wolves and Arsenal in the relegation scrap, but there is much to be decided at the top of the table as well, with European qualification still to be determined.
here is the state of play Premier League on Saturday.
The opening kick-off on Saturday will see Tottenham host Brentford in a big game in north London. Spurs can no longer finish in the top four, their highest possible position now being sixth.
They need points to grab that spot from Brighton but it will be an uphill task. Brentford can move to within a point of Tottenham with a win but will be without star striker Ivan Toney as he has a eight month ban for betting violations.

liverpool They are having to rely on favors elsewhere to keep their late Champions League bid going. All Reds can do is continue their excellent form and hope to find themselves in fourth place at the end of the season.
Aston Villa did better than Tottenham last time and still have a serious chance of getting a place in the Europa Conference League or even the Europa League. They have everything to play for when they visit Anfield.

Wolves are now assured of a place in the Premier League next season but the same cannot be said for Everton. They could end the weekend in the bottom three, but if the Toffees win in the West Midlands, they look pretty healthy.
They are one point above the drop and must hope that Leeds and Leicester below them do not pick up their wins this weekend.

At this stage of the season, you end up with some games that are essentially dead rubbers. Both Fulham and Crystal Palace could still climb slightly up the table, but the only thing really on the line is the extra prize money that comes with each position in the Premier League.
There are players from both sides who could have their eye on moves or new contracts in the summer, though, so it should still be a fairly competitive game at Craven Cottage, even without too much riding on it.

The Premier League title looks likely to be won on Saturday if Nottingham Forest can get all three points at home against Arsenal, but the Gunners will be desperate to keep the fight going for as long as possible.
Forest are only three points above the bottom three and still need one more result to secure safety, so they certainly won’t be rolling over for this armory Team. It promises to be a nervy and dramatic affair for both the sets of fans.
