Can Moyes produce a miracle?
Arsenal v West Ham United, Sunday 22 April, 1pm, Sky Sports Premier League/HD (CH 512/502)
There’s been a slight recent improvement in results – but David Moyes still needs a win. Guide his West Ham team to a surprise victory at Arsenal and the manager will be carried triumphantly back to East London on the Hammers fans’ shoulders. Lose and… well, it’s probably best he sits at the back of the team bus.
Are the Swans ready to fly?
Manchester City v Swansea City, Sunday 22 April, 4pm, Sky Sports Premier League/HD (CH 512/502)
Swansea City are much, much closer to survival than they were at Christmas, when they sat bottom of the table, but another season of manager Carlos Carvalhal’s delightfully bizarre interviews isn’t confirmed just yet. Up next for the Swans is a trip to champions Manchester City, and if they think Pep Guardiola will allow his players to take their foot off the gas they can think again. Nuh-uh. Ain’t gonna happen.
Can the Baggies finish with a flourish?
West Bromwich Albion v Liverpool, Saturday 21 April, 11.30am, Sky Sports Premier League/HD (CH 512/502)
Adios. Adieu. Ta-ta now. We’re as sure as we can be at this stage that West Bromwich Albion will spend next season in the Sky Bet Championship, but which players will still be with the club? Now is the time for squad members to show they’re committed to the cause. Alternatively, if a transfer is what you want, turning up to training in Bermuda shorts and sandals usually does the trick.
Will Rafa’s revolution continue?
Everton v Newcastle United, Monday 23 April, 7pm, Sky Sports Premier League/HD (CH 512/502)
From off-field turmoil to chronic inconsistency on the pitch, Newcastle United is a club with drama built firmly into its DNA. However, as much as the neutral onlooker might enjoy watching the chaos unfold at St James’ Park, it looks as if the good ship Toon is heading for calmer waters. A home win against Arsenal steered Rafa Benitez’s boys past the 40-point mark that usually means Premier League survival, but a win over Everton would secure it.
