Arsenal welcome Everton to the Emirates for the final game of the season and it is a fixture that could see Arsenal win the league if the result between Man City and West Ham goes in their favour. That is out of their hands though and they will just need to focus on the task at hand.
Arsenal have opened up at a real short price of 1/6 to get the job done whilst Everton have opened up at 14/1 to take the 3 points back to Goodison. It’s going to be a hugely exciting game with what's at stake and let’s have a look at what both teams have to offer.
Despite finishing second in the League last season Arsenal have really impressed me by backing it up this year and now have the chance to take the League title. Of course they need results to go their way but they have been outstanding this year and I find it hard to see them beat on Sunday whilst in their current form. The squad have improved all the way through the season and fully deserve to be where they are currently. The added pressure may cause a slight bit of early nerves but I still think ultimately, Arsenal are far too good for Everton.
This season has been far from straightforward for Everton but they are safe for another season and have played some good football in patches this season. I think they have done very well to remain focussed on the task at hand this season with so much going on off the pitch and they can cause Arsenal problems this weekend, but probably not enough to take the win.

In the head to heads Arsenal actually lead 4-1 in the last five games and I think they are going to be extremely hard to beat here. Even though Everton have managed to win one of the five, Arsenal have been largely dominant and have actually improved since that encounter too. It’s hard to make a case for Everton here.
This is going to be a fascinating contest with what is at stake for Arsenal and with Everton now safe for another season, you have to question how much they will be up for this game. I think Arsenal have just excelled this season and I expect them to get it done quite easily in this game.
After looking at both teams it obviously looks very one sided but Arsenal are just 1/6 to get the win and that is hardly an exciting betting proposition. For my selection, I am going to use the correct score market and think that I have found some nice value for you to get stuck into.
For the final game of the season we have Arsenal looking to get their hands on the Premier League trophy but as mentioned, they will need results to go their way in the Man City v West Ham game but they can’t control that part and will need to be fully focused on their own performance. I usually try and make a case for the underdogs but I think Arsenal are going to run riot here.
I did consider looking at the 4-0 win but I have a feeling Arsenal will better that and I am taking a chance on a 5-0 win for Arsenal at a price of 12/1. I think they have had a fantastic season and will win easily enough here but again, they are likely to fall one spot short of where they want to be. That being said, they will be fully focused on the task at hand and will be very tough to beat.
