Before we run through the Premier League team news, I'll nudge you in the direction of Everton v Arsenal. Simon Burnton has the updates, with the Toffees having just levelled from the penalty spot. Everton v Arsenal: Premier League – live Share
The skies are clear, the temperature is up and … sadly there's not much to play for at the denouement of a strange Premier League season. BUT – and it's a big but – there are some 3pm kickoffs with at least a morsel of juicy narrative to gnaw on. There's the bragging rights of the A23 derby to be won at Selhurst Park, while if Ipswich beat Wolves at Portman Road we might, just might, have a relegation scrap on our hands. There's West Ham v Bournemouth too, if mid-table slugfests are your thing.
The Championship, as ever, may offer us the most significant storylines. The next staging post on Sheffield United's quest for automatic promotion is Oxford United, while the likes of Cardiff, Derby and Hull look to stave off that most dangerous of relegations – the one to League One. The third and fourth tiers are brimming with action too, of course, not forgetting the Scottish Premiership and the Bundeliga, while Real Madrid host Valencia from 3.15pm.
Let's get this one under way. Grab yourself an ice lolly and enjoy. Premier League: 10 things to look out for this weekend Share Explore more on these topics
