Chelsea must beat Manchester City to keep their hopes of a Premier League top-four finish on track
Hello good afternoon and welcome to our continuous coverage of the English Premier League.
For those in London and the United Kingdom in general, it’s another miserable day weather-wise but fortunately there are two Premier League crackers coming up this afternoon.
In today’s top-liner, Chelsea must beat Manchester City to keep their hopes of a Premier League top-four finish on track.
A 2-1 loss to Manchester United last time out allowed Tottenham to leapfrog the reigning champions, and Spurs beat Huddersfield yesterday to go five points clear of the champions in fourth.
City, meanwhile, continue to motor towards the title after thrashing Arsenal for the second time in five games, first in the EFL Cup Final before a league meeting at Emirates Stadium, both by a 3-0 scoreline.
The Man City vs Chelsea game kicks off at 4 pm GMT, but first, Arsenal travel to Brighton in what has become a must win game for Wenger's men.
Damaging defeats to Tottenham and Manchester City have seen the Gunners drop 10 points behind fourth place with 10 games to go.
Arsene Wenger is facing huge pressure on his job, not for the first time in recent seasons, and anything less than a win on Sunday would all but end the Gunners' top-four hopes.
Brighton are unbeaten in six games across all competitions and thumbed Swansea 4-1 last time out.
Today's games
Brighton v Arsenal (13:30 GMT)
Man City v Chelsea (16:00 GMT)
We'll have team news for all those games shortly.
