17:09
Gunning for the top four Everton v Man City (17:30 BST)
An aside to today's clash at Goodison Park concerns the Arsenal.

It's been a topsy-turvy season for the Gunners but should Everton lose this afternoon then it's Champions League football again at the Emirates next year. Top four finish AND a potential trophy?

17:09
Liverpool's Monday magic?
Liverpool could be shuffled down to third by Monday night then, when they face Crystal Palace. That is a real test.

But win at Selhurst Park and they will be top of the shop all over again. It's going to be a frantic few days, that's for sure. I can't wait...

17:08
Chelsea's little horse lasting the distance?
So Manchester City could be top by the end of play tonight, but Chelsea can stealthily stalk into the lead on Sunday if they beat Norwich. Listen to Jose and he'll tell you they still have no chance...

17:07
City slickers Everton v Man City (17:30 BST)
Manchester City will end the day on top of the table if they beat Everton in today's late game. And they still have that crafty midweek game in hand. Are they favourites?

Mind you, winning at Goodison Park is no easy task. Only Crystal Palace and Sunderland have won there all season.

17:06
Three-horse race?
When was the last time three teams were so close in a Premier League title race, this close to the end of the season?

In Manchester United's treble season of 1998-99 four points covered the top three (external) with two games to go, but this season is even closer.

In fact, we could have three different leaders in three days this weekend - with one game to go. Madness.

Everton v Manchester City (1730 BST)
Everton captain Phil Jagielka returns to the Everton side after a 10-week absence with a hamstring injury as manager Roberto Martinez looks to be using three central defenders. Gareth Barry cannot play against his parent club so Leon Osman comes back into midfield.

Manchester City have David Silva fit enough to return on the bench after recovering from the ankle injury he picked up against West Bromwich Albion.

17:04
Theatre of screams Man Utd 0-1 Sunderland
Manchester United have now lost seven league games at home this season, the total from the previous four seasons combined under Sir Alex Ferguson. Three defeats last season, two the year before, none in 2010-2011 and one in 2009-10.
