With the last international break of the season over, we are back with the usual programming related to domestic competitions. In this case, Premier League fans will get to watch their favorite clubs going toe-to-toe for the final points of the season in coming months, and in this particular week, they will get to see them play three times.
Over the next nine days, all clubs will have three matches that could have a major influence in their rank for the end of the season. The fight for the top three spots will be one of those topics to discuss, mainly because of a long-awaited battle between two of the teams trying to win the title taking place this weekend.
Additionally, the race to finish among the top four will also be in the middle of all discussions, with Aston Villa and Tottenham still going strong for the fourth spot. Meanwhile, Manchester United and West Ham will carry on with their run to finish sixth, hoping they can get a lifeline and play in European competitions next term.
On the lower half of the table, three teams will continue their struggle to avoid being relegated. Luton Town, Nottingham, and Burnley are only separated by five points, meaning that all they can do this week to stay afloat could be massively appreciated when the final round takes place.
Here are the main things to keep in mind ahead of this weekend's matches in the Premier League.

Top games to watch
Tottenham vs Luton Town - This game could be key for Spurs in their search for a top-four finish, especially since Luton get to this game as a potential victim. It is true that Luton were not included in the Premier League for many years, but even when they were in the same league, the Hatters struggled to beat Tottenham, and as things stand, they have not beaten Spurs since 1987. Their first game of the season ended one-nil for Tottenham, which could be an indicator of how things could roll here.

Liverpool vs Brighton - This match may be key for the title hopes held by Klopp's men, especially with Manchester City and Arsenal facing off this weekend. This seems like the best chance Liverpool will get to take the top spot with less than ten games to be played, but Brighton have their own agenda, which includes trying to catch up with Manchester United and keeping coach De Zerbi around. The Seagulls are unbeaten in their last four games against the Reds (two wins, two draws), and a similar result would not only do wonders for their cause, but it could also turn the league upside down.

Manchester City vs Arsenal - The must-watch game of the weekend will take place at Etihad Stadium, where Man City ended Arsenal's title hopes last year. A lot has gone on since that match in April 2023, with the Gunners claiming two wins against Guardiola's men, including a one-nil victory in their previous EPL fixture. Arsenal have lost eight straight games at the Etihad across all comps, which makes you wonder if they have a chance to win this game. Nonetheless, the Gunners have won nine of their 14 away games this season, which may give fans cause for hope.
On the other hand, Guardiola and his team have dropped points more frequently this season, with two draws in their last five games as testament to that. Despite that, they are yet to lose a game at their stadium, something that may be enough to make Arsenal fans doubtful about their options here.
