Swansea manager Carlos Carvalhal: "We have three chances to get the points we need to stay in the Premier League. But we are not waiting for the last game or the last two games.

"We want points as soon as possible and we are looking at the next game as though it is the final one.

"We understand it will be difficult away from home against Bournemouth but our aim is to go there and fight for three points. That is all we are thinking about."

The key for Southampton is they get to play against Swansea on Tuesday. Mark Hughes has got something going but I feel they’re fragile in defence.

I think Huddersfield will go down. They’ve got the worst goal difference apart from Stoke - they’ll get dragged in. I think Southampton will get out and Huddersfield will go in the bottom three.

The last time Stoke fell out of the top flight - the 1945-85 season - it took them another 23 years to return...

Stoke didn't have enough over 38 games and you end up where you deserve. The squad is not good enough which has been proven today. Palace came here and dominated from start to finish, despite conceding first.

Joe Allen is one of several Stoke players to collapse in a heap on the turf. Paul Lambert shakes Roy Hodgson's hand and steps out onto the pitch.

Xherdan Shaqiri stands motionless. Jack Butland is in tears as he applauds the fans.

Stoke's 10-year stay in the Premier League comes to an end. They are relegated after a 2-1 home defeat by Crystal Palace.

Newcastle lost at home to West Brom and it is a bit like they are on the beach since they hit the 40-point mark. The thing about the Premier League is that, if you are not quite at it, you get turned over. That is why I am backing Watford here.

Prediction: 2-0

Watford make three changes to the side that lost 2-0 away to Tottenham on Monday night. Adrian Mariappa, Kiko and Richarlison are left out, with captain Troy Deeney coming in off the bench.

Darryl Janmaat returns to face his former club and Roberto Pereyra is the other man to come back in for the Hornets.

Watford XI: Karnezis, Janmaat, Cathcart, Kabasele, Holebas, Hughes, Doucoure, Capoue, Pereyra, Deeney, Gray.

Newcastle make just two changes after losing 1-0 at home to West Brom last Saturday, with Florian Lejeune and Jacob Murphy coming in for DeAndre Yedlin and Matt Ritchie.

On-loan striker Islam Slimani was handed a three-match ban in midweek for kicking out at Craig Dawson after coming on for Dwight Gayle.

Newcastle XI: Dubravka, Manquillo, Lascelles, Lejeune, Dummett, Shelvey, Diame, Murphy, Perez, Kenedy, Gayle.

It would be fair to say that Claude Puel has had a few selection issues with injuries and suspensions.

And the Leicester boss brings five players into his team from last week's 5-0 hammering at Crystal Palace. Yohan Benalouane, Christian Fuchs, Fousseni Diabate, Vicente Iborra and Adrien Silva all start for the Foxes.

Development squad regulars, George Thomas and Sam Hughes, both 21, make the bench and could make their debuts at some stage.

Leicester City XI: Hamer, Benalouane, Morgan, Maguire, Fuchs, Silva, Iborra, Diabate,Choudhury, Mahrez, Vardy

Subs: Gray, Iheanacho, Dragovic, Jakupovic, Thomas, Barnes, Hughes.

David Moyes make a couple of changes to his starting line-up with Joao Mario and Arthur Masuaku returning in place of Patrice Evra and Edimilson Fernandes.

Andy Carroll gets a spot on the bench after reconciling with Moyes following a row. The big centre-forward last started a game for West Ham on 2 January, scoring twice in a 2-1 win over West Brom.

West Ham XI: Adrian, Zabaleta, Rice, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Noble, Kouyate, Mario, Masuaku, Lanzini, Arnautovic.

Subs: Carroll, Hugill, Obiang, Evra, Fernandes, Cullen, Trott.

Newcastle manager Rafael Benitez: "At the beginning [of the season], to finish in the top 17 would have been fine. For us, it was a great achievement.

"If we can finish in the top 10, it would be even better for everyone to be proud of this season. Every player knows this and they will try.

"For me, it's not a big difference to finish 12th or eighth, but because we are where we are, I would like to finish eighth if it's possible or ninth or 10th. It would be much better."

We love a long farewell in football don’t we so this is John Motson’s last Saturday appearance on Match of the Day and the sun has graciously decided to come out for the occasion.

On the face of it there’s not much riding on this game but strictly Watford aren’t mathematically safe just yet and they seem to have perfected the art of finishing Premier League seasons poorly, having done that under Quique Sanchez Flores and Walter Mazzarri.

West Brom caretaker manager Darren Moore has made no changes to his side as they welcome Tottenham to The Hawthorns.

Nacer Chadli returns to the Baggies bench.

West Brom XI: Foster, Gibbs, Hegazi, Dawson, Nyom, McClean, Brunt, Livermore, Phillips, Rondon, Rodriguez.

Mauricio Pochettino has chosen to make four changes to his Spurs side.

Toby Alderweireld, Erik Lamela, Victor Wanyama and Danny Rose are in, in the place of Ben Davies, Eric Dier, Mousa Dembele and Son Heung-Min.

Tottenham XI: Lloris, Vertonghen, Sanchez, Alderweireld, Rose, Alli, Wanyama, Trippier, Lamela, Eriksen, Kane

I was worried for Swansea for a while – form is key at this point of the season and their form has slipped.

There was something more from them in the second half against Chelsea. I think they will be alright.

Into the last 10 minutes at Stoke - a goal now massively boosts their survival chances, and it would also send West Brom down.

Follow it over here.

Both teams are out-of-form, but it is the Cherries I am backing to return to winning ways here. Whether I am right or not, Swansea's season will surely go to the wire.

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe makes two changes for the visit of Swansea.

Swansea boss Carlos Carvalhal goes one better - three changes for the visitors.

Nathan Dyer, Tom Carroll and Federico Fernandez are back, with Kyle Naughton, Andy King and Sam Clucas making way.

Fernandez has recovered from injury, with Luciano Narsingh on the bench after returning from a knee problem.

Tammy Abraham missed the defeat by parent club Chelsea as he was ineligible and the striker must settle for a place on the bench this afternoon.

Swansea XI: Fabianski, van der Hoorn, Fernandez, Mawson, Olsson, Dyer, Ki, Carroll, Roberts, Andre Ayew, Jordan Ayew.

Is the custard tart effect finally wearing thin at Swansea?

Carlos Carvalhal's appointment as manager in December had a transformative effect - the power of the Portuguese and his zany analogies helped lift the club out of danger.

But they have since slipped right back into the eggy thickness of this season's relegation battle. The once crisp pastry shell has turned soggy and sad.

The Swans have scored just twice over a winless six-match run in the league. With just three games remaining, now is when it really begins to count.

Bournemouth’s player of the season Nathan Ake is pictured on the front of the programme for their final home game against Swansea.

Eddie Howe is still stressing that his side need a point to guarantee their Premier League survival but it’s visitors Swansea whose future is most threatened. On a day when there are so many permutations they could be in the bottom three if results go against them.
