After a two-week break, the Premier League is back. The last weekend in March saw international fixtures, whilst last week was the turn of the FA Cup quarter-finals. This Friday sees the crucial relegation battle between West Ham and Wolves. The Londoners must win against an opponent who are virtually relegated.

Saturday kicks off with the clash between Arsenal and Bournemouth at the Emirates Stadium. It is a crucial match for Mikel Arteta’s side, who visit Manchester City next week and want to go into that fixture with at least the same lead. Andoni Iraola’s side want to stay in the fight for European places, so they need to keep picking up points to avoid falling behind in the table.

At 3pm, Brentford host Everton in a head-to-head clash for a place in next season’s Europa League. Both sides are level on points, so the winner of the match will take a giant step towards Europe’s second-tier competition. At the same time, Burnley will be fighting for survival against an Everton side playing for their European hopes. Saturday’s fixtures conclude at Anfield with Liverpool and Fulham, both aiming for Champions League and European competition qualification.

Much at stake on Sunday

Sunday kicks off with a fierce battle to avoid relegation. Tottenham, under new manager Roberto de Zerbi, visit a Sunderland side that could be playing in Europe next week. It is the Spurs’ most important match of the entire season, as a failure to win could see them drop into the relegation zone.

At the same time, 14:00, Nottingham Forest host Aston Villa in a crucial clash for the hosts’ survival and the visitors’ Champions League aspirations. The winner will take a huge step towards their objective. The final fixture of that slot pits Crystal Palace against Newcastle, both currently mid-table.

Sunday concludes with a cracker at Stamford Bridge between Chelsea and Manchester City. The loser will be left reeling, as the Londoners cannot afford to drop points in their fight for Champions League football, whilst Pep Guardiola’s side will bid farewell to the league title if they fail to win. Matchday 32 will be rounded off by Manchester United and Leeds United at Old Trafford, with the Red Devils looking to hold onto third place and the visitors seeking points in their fight for survival.
