Gameweek 37 comes to a conclusion this evening with two more Premier League matches.

Crystal Palace v Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester City v Bournemouth both get underway at 20:00 BST.

The match at Selhurst Park is a bit of a dead rubber, but the other fixture is of huge importance in the race for the Champions League – if Pep Guardiola’s side win or draw at the Etihad, they move up to third.

Guardiola makes four changes to his line-up.

Ederson, Matheus Nunes, Mateo Kovacic and Ilkay Gundogan come in, with Stefan Ortega, Nico O’Reilly, Savinho and Jeremy Doku ousted.

As for Bournemouth, two changes see Julian Araujo and Justin Kluivert replace Adam Smith and Alex Scott.

At Selhurst Park, Oliver Glasner has made six alterations to his starting XI.

Joel Ward, Ben Chilwell, Jefferson Lerma, Will Hughes, Romain Esse and Eddie Nketiah all come into the team.

        • 14 Years

        Yep 🙂

  26. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years

    Not sure I want to cap Haaland in 38, it will just be a miserable end to the season. Blatantly not getting anything here tonight, Marmoush will probably brace to rub it in.

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

      He doesn't look fit.

    Palace goal. Could it for once finally be Sarr? No of course not. Why would it be.

    1. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 2 months ago

  30. Kaneyonero
