The Premier League is really down to a race between Arsenal and Manchester City, which wouldn't be the first time the teams tangled for the title. That makes the April 18 showdown between the clubs potentially a title-deciding matchup, though plenty can happen in the interim.

On the other side of the table, it's safe to assume that both Burnley and Wolves are heading for relegation, barring a shocking run of form for both. But Leeds, Tottenham, Nottingham Forest and West Ham are separated by just six points and all hoping to avoid that following relegation zone.

It isn't looking good for West Ham, who still have Manchester City, Aston Villa and Arsenal on the schedule, among others. But Tottenham haven't won an EPL match since Dec. 28—their shockingly poor form domestically makes them a surprising contender for relegation.

Finally, the race for the Champions League remains tight, though the EPL is likely to have five spots again next season. That means Manchester United, Aston Villa and Liverpool are hoping to hold off Chelsea and perhaps Brentford.
