Arsenal’s hopes of finishing in the top four are not completely dead and buried.
The Gunners go into the final day of the Premier League season sitting fifth, three points behind fourth-placed Tottenham with a vastly inferior goal difference.

How the top of the table looks ahead of the final day
But Unai Emery’s side could still pip their north London rivals to fourth and seal Champions League qualification through the league.
Tottenham will finish in the top four if they win or draw against Everton at home regardless of Arsenal’s result at Burnley.
However, should Spurs lose then it opens the possibility of the Gunners sneaking above them.
For Arsenal to do it, they would have to beat Burnley heavily AND hope Tottenham’s defeat is also by a big margin, with an eight-goal swing also required.
It’s an unlikely scenario but as Liverpool and Tottenham proved this week, nothing is impossible in football.
