  8. 'West Ham out for top-six finish'published at 14:56

    Stoke v West Ham (15:00 BST)

    Martin Fisher
    MOTD commentator at the Britannia

    "Tuesday's victory over Manchester United on such an emotional night kept West Ham firmly on course to kick off life at the Olympic Stadium with European football.

    "A win at Stoke will secure a top-six finish and with it a place in next season's Europa League.

    "Slaven Bilic will be determined to have some tangible reward from such a memorable season.

    "Mark Hughes will be frustrated by his side's decline over the last couple of months which killed off their own European challenge, but three points from this one could see Stoke finish in ninth for the third successive season."

  13. 'Koeman's future dominates for Saints'published at 14:08 British Summer Time 15 May 2016

    Southampton v Crystal Palace (15:00 BST)

    Simon Brotherton
    Match of the Day commentator at St Mary's

    "Southampton's superb recent form means they've got plenty to play for on this final weekend against opponents who'll be far more concerned with next week's FA Cup final.

    "Alan Pardew is likely to make some changes with Palace safe after last week's win over Stoke, and Wembley just a week away.

    "The frustration for Saints is that the build-up to the game has been dominated by speculation surrounding the future of manager Ronald Koeman, external rather than the possibility of finishing in a European spot for the second year running.

    "Other than Leicester, they are the form team in the Premier League at the moment, though wins over Manchester City and Tottenham in the last two weeks were overshadowed a little by the effect on both of those top-four clubs."

    Newcastle v Tottenham (15:00 BST)

    Alistair Mann
    MOTD commentator at St James' Park

    "There couldn't be a greater contrast between these two clubs. For Spurs, there's burgeoning potential, stability and optimism, while for Newcastle there's an overwhelming feeling of uncertainty and palpable anxiety.

    "While Mauricio Pochettino has extended his stay at White Hart Lane, the board at St James' Park are trying to convince Rafa Benitez that the challenge of reinvigorating Newcastle is an attractive proposition, with many would-be suitors circling overhead.

    "The match itself does have significance for the visitors, who certainly don't want to give up their hard earned runners-up spot to Arsenal on the final day.

    "While a draw would ensure that milestone, a victory would also give them their highest ever Premier League points haul."

    John Roder
    Match of the Day commentator at Goodison Park

    "Presumably the mood amongst the home fans at Goodison Park is considerably better than it was for Everton's last home match, following the sacking of Roberto Martinez.

    "Frank de Boer has been installed as an early front-runner for the vacancy after the announcement that he is to leave Ajax. Whoever is appointed will be the first key decision since businessman Farhad Moshiri bought a 49.9% stake in the club.

    "In contrast, Norwich supporters want Alex Neil to stay in charge at Carrow Road. He led them to promotion from the Championship last May, why can't he do so again next season? Just look at what Sean Dyche has achieved at Burnley."
