It's one of the most exciting days on the footballing calendar, the final day in the EPL. All 20 teams in action. All at the same time. Unfortunately the title is already decided, so we won't get any "AugerOOOOOO" moments, but there's still much to be decided as far as Champions League and relegation. Let's finish the season with one last winning card.
Manchester United @ Leicester City
I know I have featured the Red Devils in these cards more consistently than Bill Clinton was featured on Epstein's flight logs, but it's turned a profit. A victory for United would see them complete a second half comeback and secure a Champions League spot, while Leicester need a result and Chelsea to lose. Leicester have been as cold as United have been hot since the restart, so it's all aboard the Bruno train once again.
The Pick: Man U ML @ +110
Arsenal @ Watford
I finally caved and picked the boys last time and it bit me in the ass. You think I'd learn my lesson, but no. Forgetting it's Arsenal for a second, I'm seeing a "Big Six" club getting plus odds against a team in the relegation zone. I know Watford need a result if they hope to stay up this season and will thus be fighting for their lives, but they've been outscored 17-7 since the restart, and 7-0 against "Big Six" clubs. Arsenal need a win to avoid an embarrassing double-digit placed finish and to pick up momentum going into their FA Cup final next week.
The Pick: Arsenal ML @ +128
Tottenham @ Crystal Palace
As consistent as I have bet on United here, I have bet against Palace. I guess we will call them Prince Andrew. Palace have conceded two or more goals in each of their last five games, and have lost seven in a row. Tottenham need a win here and some help to make Europa League happen next year, so I expect nothing but recent history to repeat itself.
The Pick: Tottenham -1 @ -120
