The Premier League season is hurtling towards a dramatic conclusion, with the title race wide open and the battle for Champions League qualification reaching a fever pitch. Here's a look at the table and some key matchups to watch ahead of Matchday 33:
Arsenal, surprisingly, find themselves back at the summit after a comprehensive 3-0 victory against Brighton. They face a crucial test this weekend as they welcome Aston Villa to the Emirates stadium. Liverpool, leveled on points with the Gunners, will be looking to capitalize on any slip-up by Arsenal when they host Crystal Palace at Anfield. Manchester City, despite their recent wobble, remain in the hunt, albeit two points adrift of the leaders. Pep Guardiola's men will be expected to cruise past Luton Town at home.
The race for the remaining Champions League spots is just as intriguing. Tottenham Hotspur, level on points with Aston Villa but ahead on goal difference, have a tricky away fixture against Newcastle. Their North London rivals, Arsenal, could inadvertently hand them a boost if they can snatch points away at Villa Park. Manchester United, currently in sixth, will be hoping to close the gap when they take on Bournemouth at Old Trafford.
