Premier League Gameweek 38 preview: Predictions & odds

Burnley vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

• Prediction: Burnley 2-1 Wolves

While both Burnley and Wolves are already preparing for Championship football next season, this match can see Wolves climb off the bottom of the table for the first time this term if they pick up their first away win of the season - but we're backing Burnley to finish strong. A good point against Villa and a solid performance at Arsenal suggest the Clarets have become tougher to break down of late, and with Wolves scoring fewer goals than any other side in the league, we can see the hosts closing out with a victory.

Crystal Palace vs Arsenal

• Prediction: Crystal Palace 0-2 Arsenal

This game means very little in the grand scheme of things, with Crystal Palace guaranteed to finish between 14th-16th, and Arsenal simply waiting to lift the Premier League trophy for the first time since 2004 - and with both sides having European finals to look forward to, we don't expect them to be at their strongest here. Two weakened sides with focus elsewhere hints at this one being quite forgettable, but we're still backing the newly-crowned champions to end their season in style.

Fulham vs Newcastle United

• Fulham vs Newcastle bet builder tips

• Prediction: Fulham 1-1 Newcastle

While both Fulham and Newcastle could scrape into the Conference League with a win at Craven Cottage, it would take something of a miracle, so this match is definitely one of the least noteworthy of the weekend. Both sides have endured disappointing seasons overall, and on a fitting note, we're predicting an unremarkable draw between two teams whose most realistic goal will be to earn a top-half finish.

Liverpool vs Brentford

• Prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Brentford

The season's final Anfield outing is much more than just another game for the Reds, with this weekend marking the end of Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson's Liverpool careers, so we're expecting the hosts to be near their best on such a special occasion - securing Champions League football in the process. They only need a point, and considering they're coming up against an out-of-form Brentford team with just one win in nine league games, we don't anticipate too many issues for Arne Slot's side here - even if the Bees are still dreaming of Europe.

Manchester City vs Aston Villa

• Bet on Man City vs Aston Villa

• Man City vs Aston Villa bet builder tips

• Prediction: Man City 2-0 Aston Villa

While this game has nothing riding on it for either Man City or Aston Villa, the result could have huge implications on the fate of teams fighting for Europe, with a City win potentially opening up an extra Champions League spot. If this is to be Pep Guardiola's final game in charge, then City are likely to go out with a bang, and against a potentially lethargic Villa side fresh off the back of winning a first major trophy in 30 years, they shouldn't have any problems.

Nottingham Forest vs Bournemouth

• Bet on Nottingham Forest vs Bournemouth

• Nottingham Forest vs Bournemouth bet builder tips

• Prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-2 Bournemouth

Having already secured a first-ever European campaign next season, Bournemouth will now hope to go one better and nick a Champions League place - but they will have to rely on other results. It won't be easy, facing a Nottingham Forest side who have lost just one of their last six home games in all competitions, but we think the Cherries will do enough to mark Andoni Iraola's farewell match with three potentially historic points.

Sunderland vs Chelsea

• Bet on Sunderland vs Chelsea

• Sunderland vs Chelsea bet builder tips

• Prediction: Sunderland 1-1 Chelsea

Both Sunderland and Chelsea come into the final day of the season with something to play for, and while a draw doesn't particularly suit either side, that's the exact outcome we're predicting at the Stadium of Light. One league win in eight is a sorry record for such an expensive Chelsea side, and with Sunderland's win at Everton last week bringing them their first victory in five, this is hardly a clash of the titans in the North-East. Chelsea still look likely to get Europe, and we think they'll scrape over the line with a point on the final day.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton

• Bet on Tottenham vs Everton

• Tottenham vs Everton bet builder tips

• Prediction: Tottenham 1-1 Everton

One of the biggest games in Tottenham's recent history, Roberto De Zerbi's side know a point secures their Premier League status and puts a disastrous season behind them - sending West Ham down in the process - and we're backing them to get their wish. A total of just two home wins all season doesn't suggest they'll pull out a masterclass of a performance against Everton, but with so many Spurs fans driving on their team, we think they'll earn a nervy draw - surviving the drop.

West Ham United vs Leeds United

• Bet on West Ham vs Leeds

• West Ham vs Leeds bet builder tips

• Prediction: West Ham 2-1 Leeds

West Ham know anything less than a win on Sunday will see them fall into the Championship for the first time since 2012, and with so much at stake, we're tipping the Hammers to do enough to claim all three points at home to Leeds. Regardless of whether it proves to be enough to save them or not, finishing with a positive result is essential for Nuno and his side, and with Leeds already achieving their targets, they could be slightly off their usual pace - so we're predicting a potentially season-defining West Ham victory.

Hull City vs Middlesbrough

• Bet on Hull vs Middlesbrough

• Hull vs Middlesbrough bet builder tips

• Prediction: Hull 1-2 Middlesbrough

While the final day of the Premier League season takes centre stage on Sunday, all eyes will be on the much-discussed Championship play-off final on Saturday afternoon, with Hull taking on the reprieved Middlesbrough at Wembley - and we're backing Boro to make the most of their second chance. Neither team ended the season in great form, but with Boro finishing seven points ahead of the Tigers across the 46-game campaign, we're tipping Kim Hellberg's side to earn promotion to the Premier League.
