Preview: The 37th Round of the Premier League (1)

The Premier League of this season has reached the penultimate round. Although Liverpool has already won the championship in advance, the competition for the top five positions in the Premier League is still very exciting.

The top five teams mean they will be qualified for the UEFA Champions League next year, and up to now, four of the spots remain in doubt. It is worth mentioning that despite their poor performance in the Premier League, either Manchester United or Tottenham Hotspur will also secure a spot in next year's Champions League after the Europa League final in the near future.

Next, let's take a look at the key matches and the clubs participating in the 37th round of the league one by one.

Arsenal vs. Newcastle

After drawing 2-2 with Liverpool at Anfield last round, Arsenal is still striving to secure their second place. The match against Newcastle this weekend is likely to be decisive, and the winner will advance to the final as the second-place team. One point is what Arsenal need to secure their Champions League qualification. They can't think that a draw is enough in this game.

While struggling in the Champions League semi-finals and the league, Mikel Arteta's team has achieved two draws and three losses in their last five games. Since April 1st (2-1 victory over Fulham), they haven't won at the Emirates Stadium, with two draws and one loss.

Facing the powerful Newcastle, they have already defeated them three times this season. A victory will well demonstrate the mentality of this team. The second place this season has lasted for a long time. Falling below the second place so late won't change anything, but it will be embarrassing.

The return of Declan Rice, Leandro Trossard and Kai Havertz should give them motivation as they are preparing for their last home game of the season. Even though it has been a season without any trophies, the Gunners surely won't want a bad ending.
