In the top four race, Arsenal and Man United remain firm favourites to secure the final Champions League slot.

Both teams secured crucial wins at the weekend, with Man United sinking Tottenham Hotspur 3-2 at Old Trafford on Saturday.

The win momentarily fired them to fourth with 50 points before the Gunners leapfrogged them later on Sunday after they stunned Leicester 2-0.

West Ham, meanwhile, occupy sixth place with 48 points after they edged Aston Villa 2-1 at the London Stadium.

Everton flirting with relegation

The drop zone remains unchanged after match week 29, with Watford, Burnley, and Norwich City all sitting in the relegation.

However, the Hornets gave themselves a chance of survival following their 2-1 vital win over Southampton at St. Mary's.

The result leaves them sitting 18th with 22 points, on level with Frank Lampard's Everton who are now battling relegation.

The Toffees failed to recover from their recent heavy defeat to Tottenham as they lost 1-0 to Wolves at home on Sunday, March 13.
