We depart Old Trafford to tour a quintet of three o’clock matches, before dropping in on the Emirates as City look to put a final nail in Arsenal’s title coffin, boosting their own Chelsea chase in the process.

Before that, Jose Mourinho’s side have the opportunity to stretch their legs at the top as they pay visit to Selhurst Park – the only one of this afternoon’s encounters that addresses the title race. Elsewhere, we’re dealt an array of mid-table clashes and relegation wrangles with few prime Fantasy assets on show. It could be time for a few differentials to emerge, then, before Arsenal and City take to the turf to see us out.

You can look to our Twitter feed for all the lineup news, while our Dugout Discussion chatroom remains open to welcome those who indulge in some real-time reaction while matches unfold.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

          It was very late and high, it would be given as a red once in a while.

          I was both bricking it as an owner and loving it as a Gooner.

      Shipping Hazard? Knee-jerk surely, isn't?

        It has been 7 games since he scored in open play though, so it's not exactly knee jerk, even if it might be regretted.

      I think most people have given Palace a chance of staying up since Pulis took over. It was only under Holloway that you were a joke.
