After the midweek Premier League title race drama with Manchester City and Arsenal the division resumes this weekend.
Yes, City have placed one hand on another title but there remains unfinished business for Liverpool and Spurs, who still harbour outside hopes of finishing in the top four.
Further down the table, Crystal Palace and West Ham are attempting to drift further away from the drop to Championship football.
There will be three televised games this weekend across BT Sports and Sky Sports. Here’s how to watch…
Crystal Palace vs West Ham
Despite a 2-0 loss to Wolves, Roy Hodgson has revived hope of avoiding relegation after collecting 10 points in Crystal Palace’s previous four games.
The veteran manager has lit a fire underneath youngsters Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise, who have reminded the Palace faithful why they are the future of south London.
Hodgson will look to get the Eagles back into the win column against West Ham, a team who has also had revitalised performances in recent weeks.
After their 5-1 loss to Newcastle the future seemed bleak for David Moyes as their relegation battle continued.
But four gameweeks later there is a sense of optimism around the club after taking a point from Arsenal and beating Bournemouth 4-0.
A win for either team would do a lot of good for hopes of finishing in the top half this season.
Date: Saturday 29 April
Kick-off: 12.30pm

Fulham vs Man City
Earlier on this season, Fulham were pushing for European football spots but have since fallen to 10th after the eight-game suspension of Aleksandr Mitrovic for pushing Chris Kavanagh.
And as City continue their streak of terror it will most likely be another week of no points for Marco Silva’s side.
After beating title contenders Arsenal, City will be beaming with an added level of confidence that will be near impossible to break.
Erling Haaland continues his monstrous season and Kevin De Bruyne seems to have unlocked a new gear to place himself among the greatest Premier League midfielders ever.
Date: 30 Sunday April
Kick-off: 2pm

Liverpool vs Tottenham
After an embarrassing week for Tottenham, losing to Newcastle 6-1 and sacking interim manager Cristian Stellini, there may be reason for Spurs fans to be optimistic.
A 2-2 draw with Manchester United midweek coached by Ryan Mason was evidence of the fight the North London club seemed to have been lacking all season.
Anfield will be the true test of passion as Liverpool are in need of a win to seriously contend for top four.
Jurgen Klopp’s men are undefeated in five games since losing to City and have been boosted by a system change that has seen Trent Alexander-Arnold invert into midfield.
Date: 30 Sunday April
Kick-off: 4.30pm
