Premier League Final Day: Title, European Qualification, and Relegation Battle

The 2023–24 Premier League season comes to a close this coming Sunday, with the championship, European qualification, and the season’s conclusion, and the final relegation spot all hanging in the balance. Here’s a breakdown of what’s at stake on the final day:

Title Race

Manchester City holds a slender two-point lead as they face West Ham in their last match. A victory would secure an unprecedented fourth consecutive title for Pep Guardiola’s side. However, if Arsenal triumphs over Everton, City must win to clinch the title due to their inferior goal difference by just one.

European Places

Liverpool and Aston Villa have already secured third and fourth place, guaranteeing Champions League qualification. The focus now shifts to Europa League and Conference League qualification. Tottenham need just a point against relegated Sheffield United to secure fifth place and a spot in the Europa League group stage. However, defeat could open the door for Chelsea to leapfrog them by beating Bournemouth. Manchester United, currently in eighth, can realistically only climb to seventh, with Erik ten Hag’s side needing to better Newcastle’s result.

Relegation Battle

Sheffield United and Burnley are already set for relegation to the Championship. Luton Town’s survival hopes hang by a thread, as they sit three points behind Nottingham Forest. Luton would need a win against Fulham, coupled with a defeat for Forest against Burnley, and a significant swing in goal difference to avoid the drop. If Luton’s fate is sealed, it would mark only the second time in Premier League history that all three promoted teams are relegated in the same season.

The final day of the Premier League promises drama and excitement as teams battle it out for glory and survival.
