The final weekend of the Premier League season is almost exclusively about the title race, but there’s one more team looking for a successful end to their campaign: Arsenal need a miracle to finish in fourth place and qualify for next season’s Champions League, but there is still a chance if they manage to beat Burnley at Turf Moor, which will not be a simple task.

The Gunners enter the last game of the season without a win in four straight matches, which destroyed their chances of finishing in the Top 4 after looking like a lock less a month ago. Now they go into this weekend needing a huge road win against a Burnley while hoping for a huge Tottenham loss in their home game against Everton.
Just an Arsenal win and a Spurs loss won’t do the trick: Arsenal need to make up an eight-goal differential, which means they need to win by at least four goals at Burnley while Tottenham have to lose by at least four goals to Everton. Both scenarios are highly unlikely, but Unai Emery’s men have to believe it’s at least a little bit possible and give their all to win at Turf Moor.
Burnley love causing problems to the big teams at home, and their home crowd is expecting another strong performance from their team in the season finale. This should be a fun game with Champions League implications, and at the very least should cap the season nicely for one team.
