    Ali: Brighton home form scored 2 in 9, won 2 in 17 and lost to Bournemouth 5-0 recently! If they get anything against city, this will be the miracle of all miracles.

    Jon: Nice and relaxed today hoping the Reds can finish this incredible season with a great performance against Wolves... Low expectations of City dropping point's at Brighton, but stranger things have happened this week.

    Whatever happens today, one thing is for sure, the Premier League is the best in the world. It has everything, twist, turn, emotion, passion, best fans, best managers, come back of all come backs, everything you want, Premier League delivers season after season.

    Sanjay, London and LFC Fan

    Irrespective of Man City's result, I've been worried about Wolves at Anfield for weeks. Unchanged side, brilliant season, and won this fixture in 1984, 2010, 2017 and knocked us out of FA Cup this year. Nervous!

    It’s been an incredible few days, whether it happens again today I am not too sure – but as someone said to me just now in the Anfield press box, when was the last time City lost on the last day of the season? To Norwich City in 2013. The Norwich manager that day – Chris Hughton.

    Good luck to the rest of the Premier League big boys.

    I know Pep Guardiola comes across as nice but he’s relentless. They are your best friend at work but if you overstep the line... Riyad Mahrez had a couple of bad games and hasn’t been seen since. Pep has got a luxury of choosing better players.

    You always felt Manchester City would reproduce a similar points total to last season. What Liverpool have done to close that gap, full credit. It’s brilliant. They’ve gone up to the next level. They’ll be more attractive to players they try to sign this summer. The Barcelona game shows you the spirit they’ve got.

    Expect to see this table A LOT TODAY

    There is absolutely zero logic, none whatsoever, that the crazy comebacks in midweek mean that there is more chance of a turnaround at the top of the table today.

    And yet there is a feeling that it means it is suddenly more likely. Right?

    PRIDE.

    That's the best word to describe my feelings towards this season. Proud of our lads who have put absolutely every ounce of their energy into every single game, despite a number of knockbacks along the way.

    Though the Premier League trophy may have been nudged beyond our reach by a formidable Manchester City side, this Liverpool team have shown an absolutely relentless intensity to keep pace - and that's without mentioning our performance in the Champions League.

    There’s obviously still a chance, and it wouldn’t be the strangest thing that’s happened this week, but regardless we can have no gripes about the overall performance of Jurgen Klopp’s men. Some will point out moments that could have changed the landscape, but finishing the season with a potential 97 points is unheard of in our history.

    It eclipses the total of some of the Premier League’s greatest sides and shows just how high the level has been between the two top teams. Whoever wins it is more than deserving.

    In the meantime, we get to show our admiration at Anfield one final time before another chapter ends. Hopefully the team can go again for a 30th league win of the season.

    Until then, the rollercoaster hasn’t stopped yet. Who’s to say there won’t be one last twist?

    Today is all about Liverpool.

    But it is worth pointing out Wolves have got positive results against all the 'big six' in the Premier League this season, apart from Liverpool, who they knocked out of the FA Cup.

    They have drawn at Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea this season - and won at Tottenham.

    Nuno Espirito Santo's side are assured of seventh place and will qualify for the Europa League if Manchester City win the FA Cup final next Saturday.

    Taken in isolation, this is not an easy game for Liverpool.

    Everybody I've spoken to has been of a similar mind - that at some point in the afternoon Liverpool will be top of the Premier League.

    Most think City will be there by the only time it matters.

    So where DO you look to state the case for a final-day slip by the team that's won 13 league games in a row?

    Brighton? Even if at the top of their game, it still comes down to City being on theirs. If they are, they win.

    Pressure? City's players have handled that all season.

    'The football Gods'? They've been busy this week already and may be the only explanation if it happens!

    It's City's title to lose. It's all our loss that this magnificent season is nearly done.

    I think Liverpool's Champions League win will be a positive for this game. Their fans will be up for it, they always are.

    Wolves have shown before – they’ve got results against all the top six. They’ve got a good record. They play football, they’re attacking – they don’t sit back and hope for the best.

    But I don’t expect any slip-ups from either team [Liverpool or Man City]. I think it will be two wins.

    It was a beautiful walk across Stanley Park to get to Anfield today.

    There are plenty of early arrivals but it was a peaceful scene as the magnificent new main stand came into view.

    The big question is, when I walk back will it be after one of the great English football stories and the end of a 29-year wait, or an agonising near miss?

    Watford v West Ham (15:00 BST)

    Matt Rowson, BHaPPY website

    The very recent run of disappointing results that has seen our hopes of being “best of the rest” dissipate shouldn’t take the shine off what has been an excellent season. We have an exciting side, a charming, unassuming and intelligent head coach, rational and experienced owners and reasons to be optimistic for the future.

    Watford have become, on the face of it, quite predictable; we lost 11 of 12 games against the top six, but won 13 and lost only four against everyone else. If there’s a frustration it’s that many of those big six games, including all four against United and Arsenal, saw good performances go unrewarded.

    Defeat by West Ham on the final day would see us drop into the bottom half which would be extremely harsh, but there’s the small matter of another visit to Wembley in a week’s time. Clearly, we’re underdogs. But, you know, at least we’re that… a good season could still become a very special one.

    Player of the season: Etienne Capoue

    Signing of the season: Ben Foster, with honorable mentions to Gerard Deulofeu and Domingos Quina

    Goal of the season: We have quite a showreel of spectacular goals, but Troy’s penalty at Wembley was special in other ways

    Disappointment of the season:Troy’s red card against Arsenal.

    Mark for manager (out of 10): 9

    Mark for season (out of 10): 8.5 (pending the cup final…)

    Watford's player of the season Etienne Capoue is available on Sunday after overcoming a groin problem.

    Miguel Britos should also play - the defender missed last weekend's defeat against Chelsea after having a wisdom tooth out.

    West Ham midfielder Robert Snodgrass returns after serving a one-match suspension.

    Declan Rice and Felipe Anderson were also absent last weekend with a virus but they are fit to face the Hornets.

    Jack Wilshere is in line for his first start since September after two separate ankle problems.

    Southampton v Huddersfield (15:00 BST)

    Chris Wise
    Match of the Day commentator

    It's Huddersfield's final farewell, six weeks on from confirmation of their Premier League relegation.

    After battling to an unexpected point against Manchester United, Jan Siewert will feel he is getting closer to implementing his desired style of play. A change in ownership won't affect his position, though the likely high turnover of playing staff this summer means Siewert may need more patience before his grand plan comes to fruition.

    Ralph Hasenhuttl arrived in England less than two months before Siewert, but Southampton's future looks brighter than it has done for many a month.

    Victory over Huddersfield would be the Austrian's ninth in his 23 Premier League matches - and that would be more league wins than his predecessors Mark Hughes and Mauricio Pellegrino managed between them!
