Southampton vs. Liverpool
The Premier League has reached its home stretch, and Liverpool remain in the hunt as they attempt to win the top domestic prize which has eluded them since 1990.
The Anfield giants have not lifted the Premier League trophy in their history after previously dominating the old First Division in the 1970s and '80s.
Jurgen Klopp's side have recently limped along as they successfully maintain results. The exceptional standards evident at the start of the campaign have gradually ebbed away but without hurting their chances of success.
Liverpool are still in the race but know they cannot afford a slip, with Manchester City putting their foot on the accelerator.
Southampton have been in and around the relegation battle all season, but they are now five points clear of the drop zone.
A win against the Reds would represent a huge step towards survival with Huddersfield Town and Fulham already relegated.
Loanee Danny Ings is ineligible to face his parent club, forcing Saints manager Ralph Hasenhuttl into changes to his side.
Klopp said his side respect Southampton after their improvement since the Austrian's arrival in December:
Virgil van Dijk is in line to feature against his former club after a phenomenal season for Liverpool.
The 27-year-old has started 32 Premier League matches this term and is favourite to win PFA Player of the Year.
Van Dijk has steadied the Liverpool back line and emerged as one of the best defenders on the planet since his switch from St Mary's Stadium in January 2018.
Chelsea vs. West Ham United
Chelsea missed out on the Champions League last season but now stand on the edge of a top-four berth.
Head coach Maurizio Sarri has endured a difficult first campaign in England, but with the season reaching its conclusion, the Blues can finish with a flourish.
A 3-0 win at home to Brighton & Hove Albion on Wednesday kept the team on track, with Callum Hudson-Adoi finally making his full Premier League debut for Chelsea.
The 18-year-old has waited patiently in the wings despite delivering an impressive first showing for England last month.
Hudson-Adoi displayed his incredible potential against the Seagulls and said he was pleased to make his Chelsea bow, per Sky Sports Premier League:
West Ham sit in 11th place, and their attention will soon turn to the summer transfer window.
The Hammers had hoped to push up the standings this season, but their mid-table status represents their quality this term.
Sarri might be keen to play Hudson-Adoi again, and the teenager could be the key to a top-four finish in the league.
Chelsea have only six games remaining and must find a way of nudging past Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur in the final weeks.
