With just three points separating third through sixth, every fixture carries immense weight. If City can secure another win in their remaining games, they’ll cement a top-four berth.

Newcastle’s visit to Brighton and Chelsea’s “six-pointer” against Liverpool could prove pivotal. Nottingham Forest, sitting on the same points as Chelsea, must rely on favourable results elsewhere while bagging victories at Selhurst Park.

As the drama unfolds over the next week, fans will be glued to final-day permutations. One thing is certain: England’s elite will leave nothing behind in the battle to qualify for Europe’s premier club competition.
