- Arsenal is confirmed to finish first, Manchester City second, and Manchester United third, while Liverpool needs a point to secure a Champions League spot, with potential shifts in fourth to sixth places depending on final match outcomes.
- Bournemouth, Brighton, Chelsea, Sunderland, and Brentford are all battling for European football qualification, with several permutations affecting their final standings and chances for Champions League or Europa League spots.
- Burnley and Wolves face a crucial relegation battle in their final match, described as a "wooden spoon playoff."
- The final day will also see several farewells and celebrations: Arsenal will receive their trophy, Oliver Glasner and Pep Guardiola will bid farewell to their clubs, and Mo Salah and Andy Robertson will play their last home games for Liverpool.
