Arsenal will play host to Watford at the Emirates stadium in the league’s final fixture on Sunday evening.
It remains to be seen what kind of side Mikel Arteta selects given the FA Cup final against Chelsea on the horizon. Though the Gunners have nothing to play tomorrow but an opportunity to finish their season on a high note might motivate Mikel Arteta’s team.
On the other hand, the managerless Watford desperately need a positive result to avoid relegation, sitting in 18th position, with the same point alongside Aston Villa (17th) on one goal difference. Villa travel to the London stadium to face West Ham United – so they need to better the Villains result to avoid Premier League relegation.
💬 Tom Cleverley: “It could go to the last minute of our game. Let’s stay in it up until the last minute, and if it takes us right up to the last minute, then believe we can do it, because it could be one of the best moments in all of our careers.”#ARSWAT
