Arsenalhold a two-point lead over the Cityzens heading into the penultimate games, and can extend that advantage to five before Pep Guardiola’s team next take to the field.

The Gunners host relegated Burnley on Monday night, with City next in league action the following day, due to the club’s participation in the FA Cup final this weekend.

Arsenal are aiming for a firstPremier League title in 22 years and know wins over Burnley and Crystal Palace will confirm the club as champions.

However, City’s superior goal difference means any dropped result could prove costly. City also have history of late title wins, sealing threePremier League titles on the final day.

Scottish Premiership

Scotland will have an unforgettable conclusion to the 2025/26 as title rivalsCeltic and Hearts meet in the final fixture. Hearts have a narrow lead at the top of the table, as the Edinburgh outfit aim to end 40 years of Old Firm dominance in the Scottish Premiership.

Not since Aberdeen in 1985 has a team outside Celtic or Rangers won the title, but Hearts will be champions if defeat is avoided at Celtic Park. However, champions Celtic can snatch the title with a win of their own. This is the definition of winner-takes-all.

Having ended each of the last two campaigns as the top two, Union Saint-Gilloise and Club Brugge are again battling it out in Belgium. The former are defending champions after a first league title in 90 years last season, but trail Brugge by a point.

The teams meet in the Belgium capital this weekend in a potentially decisive clash.
