Leicester City's fourth prospect
After winning this game, Leicester City accumulated 66 points, ranking third in the league, ahead of West Ham United 8 who have one game less points, leading Liverpool html with 49 points with two games less. Leicester City has two games ahead, an away game against Chelsea and a home game against Tottenham . Although these two opponents are not easy to deal with, the prospects for securing the fourth place are still very good.
Chelsea currently has 64 points and has three games left. They will face Arsenal at home tomorrow morning, then they will face Leicester City at home and Aston Villa away. After winning two games, you can ensure the top four without looking at anyone's face.
West Ham United has three games left, away games against Brighton and West Brom, and at home against Southampton. The three opponents are all teams with no desires and have a great chance of winning three consecutive games. However, even if they win all three games, they can only accumulate 67 points, and West Ham United currently only has a 10 goal difference, and Leicester City has a 21 goal difference. Therefore, West Ham United's situation in competing for the fourth place is not optimistic.

Manchester United blocks Liverpool's fight for the top four
Liverpool still has four games, away games against Manchester United, West Brom, Burnley , and the last home game against Crystal Palace . Although Liverpool currently has only 57 points, Liverpool still has some control over its own destiny. If Manchester United can be defeated away from home, the remaining three opponents will not be afraid. If Liverpool wins all four games, the points can reach 69 points, which can at least create psychological pressure on Chelsea and Leicester City.
Judging from this game, Manchester United is determined to enter the Red Army into the Europa League next season. Therefore, Manchester United will definitely compete with Liverpool in the next game. If Manchester United defeats Liverpool at home, maybe Liverpool will completely miss the next season. Champions League competition.

Leicester City's previous two games were a 1-1 away draw with Southampton, and then a 2-4 home loss to Newcastle.The majority of fans were shocked and exclaimed that Leicester City was about to repeat the tragedy of falling out of the top four in the last game of last season.
