Arsenal take on Everton in Premier League action.

Arsenal manager Arsene WengerArsenal manager Arsene Wenger

With a chance to seal Champions League football still on for the Gunners, Arsenal will be desperate to pick up three points on the final day of the season when they take on Ronald Koeman’s Everton. Arsene Wenger’s side need to leap-frog Everton’s biggest rivals, Liverpool, to secure a fourth place finish.

The Gunners will be taking some good form into this game, after picking up four wins from their last four games. With the future of long-serving manager Wenger in doubt, the Frenchman will likely be keen to finish as strongly as possible, and not miss out on European football for the first time in 21 years.

But Everton won’t be making life easy for Arsenal, as they too look to finish the season in as good a form as possible. The Toffees will finish seventh this season, after falling too far behind sixth place Manchester United, after a season of steady improvement under Ronald Koeman.

The Toffees have picked up just one win from their last four games, and their away form has been inconsistent this season. With their position secured, Ronald Koeman might well choose to field a team filled with youngsters in this game.
