The 32nd edition of the English Premier League enters the final round of fixtures this weekend without an outright winner. This season’s title race is going down to the wire, with the following possible outcomes determining the Champion.
Arsenal will be champions if Man City lose or draw against West Ham at the Etihad and the Gunners beat Everton. So, the title is in the hands of Man City, who need a victory to guarantee the title, but Arsenal should hope for a miracle in Manchester and overcome the Toffies.

The Arsenal vs Everton odds for this encounter clearly show the disposition before the match, where the stronger team has a better motivation as well. It makes Everton’s chances to get some points in London pretty impossible.
This season, Arsenal is undefeated against the ‘Big Six’ clubs. However, losses to Aston Villa, West Ham, Newcastle, and Fulham put them two points behind City. The Gunners now need a slip-up from Man City to win the EPL title after two decades of trying. Arteta’s team entered the game with five successive Premier League wins, including a 1-0 victory at Old Trafford last weekend. They now set a new club record with 27 wins and 89 goals in a single season.
Bukayo Saka limped off the field at Old Trafford, but Arteta declared him fine after the match. Jurrien Timber is the only sidelined player currently rehabilitating.
Having long secured their Premier League status, Everton approached Sunday’s encounter with a formidable five-game unbeaten run. Sean Dyche’s men have emerged victorious in four of their last five matches, including a hard-fought 1-0 triumph over Sheffield United last week. Although they have little at stake this weekend, Everton’s recent form and momentum position them to pose a stern test for the hosts, making for a potentially tricky clash.
Everton will be without Vitaly Mykolenko and Nathan Patterson for this encounter.

Arsenal got back to the title discussion after an excellent second half of the season display. They’ve tasted defeat once this year, ensuring they put pressure on the reigning champion, Man City. Arsenal won five of their last eight matches with a two-goal margin. Arsenal remained undefeated in EPL final fixtures since 2005. Their matchday 38 game last season against the Toffees ended 5-1. Considering the stakes of this match and Arsenal’s brilliant form, we expect them to win with more than a goal margin.

A standout feature that got Arsenal to where they are in the league this season is their defensive solidity. Arteta’s team has only let in eight goals this year and conceded 28 the whole season – the fewest in the league. The Gunners have kept clean sheets in seven of their previous nine league matches. We expect them to continue this trend in this game and keep things tight at the back for Everton. Football odds for betting value this option at 1.80 (4/5).
Such decisive matchups can be pretty exciting and nervous even for stronger teams, but we expect Arsenal to beat Everton comfortably.
