Arsenal are quickly on to Chelsea as the hosts knock the ball around at the back, but the Blues successfully work their way out under pressure as the Gunners look to force an early error.

We're getting under way in three of our four games.

It is a big boost having Mina back. Everton need him fit and firing. My worry is where are the legs for Everton?

How excited are we? This could be a huge night for all sorts of reasons. The teams are out at Stamford Bridge, Goodison Park and St James' Park. We're almost ready to roll.

A bad run of form at a terrible time for Arsenal.

Mikel Arteta's side have lost four of their past five in the league, and each of their last three to Crystal Palace, Brighton and Southampton.

A defeat tonight would make it their worst league run in 27 years...

I think the pressure is firmly off Brighton.

If you asked me at the start of this week with Brighton playing Arsenal, Tottenham and Man City away I would have been fearful. But to have six points already they will go there full of hope.

But Bissouma and Trossard are pretty irreplaceable. They are two of their better players. Bissouma sets the tempo and Trossard is their goalscorer

People may perceive a team with nothing to play for are on the beach. But there’s nothing more important for a footballer than being relevant so you want to have your say on relegation or a title challenge.

What is also crucial in the Premier League is finishing strongly for next year. You don’t want to go into the summer in poor form.

Tonight is Kevin de Bruyne's 300th appearance for Manchester City.

In that time he has become one of the most influential players in the Premier League and the owner of three league titles.

If City retain their trophy this season, he will move alongside the likes of Didier Drogba and Eric Cantona, who also won four.

Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha is one goal away from making this his most prolific Premier League campaign.

The 29-year-old has scored 11 goals in 26 Premier League games this season - his joint-best return in a single top-flight campaign, having also scored 11 last term.

Should he score today, it would be the first time since February 2019 that he has scored in three consecutive Premier League appearances.

Brighton & Hove Albion

Brighton have the sixth best away record in the Premier League.

They've already beaten Burnley, Brentford, Everton, Watford, Arsenal and Tottenham on their travels.

Only Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham and Wolves have bettered Brighton's tally of 25 points on the road.

Newcastle were 19th in the table, five points from safety, after 11 games when Eddie Howe was appointed as manager in November.

What a job he's done since.

After 21 league games in charge, the Magpies are 12 points clear of the bottom three and in the mix for a top-10 finish.

Only Liverpool and Tottenham have won more points in 2022.

If you had said to me at the beginning of this season, we would beat Arsenal and Tottenham away, I would have asked how much you'd had to drink!

Saturday's match was, without doubt, the best. We dominated the whole game - the stats speak for themselves.

Tottenham did not get one shot on target. We held them, came up to their level and outclassed them. I had thought the line-up would change. Thankfully, it didn't and those that played did so with passion and urgency. We truly deserved the win.

Up next is Manchester City, one of the best teams in the Premier League. Can we cause an upset there?

I'd be happy with a point, to be honest. Mind you, I said that before Saturday and look what happened

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has not been the same since he came back from injury.

He's certainly not the Calvert-Lewin of last season. But he offers more than goals and Richarlison in particular needs someone like Calvert-Lewin around.

This is a big game for Everton. They have some tough games coming up and they have to win their home games if they are to stay up.

I think they have a great chance. One player who is key tonight is Fabian Delph with his experience in midfield.

Defeat for Tottenham against Brighton at the weekend. Four defeats in five for Arsenal. One win in four for both Manchester United and West Ham.

Fourth place looks to be there for the taking - but the sides in contention continue to drop points.

It's a big, big week for Arsenal's hopes of returning to the Champions League for the first time since 2017. First up it's Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, before hosting top-four rivals Manchester United on Saturday.

The Gunners also have West Ham and Tottenham to come in their remaining fixtures...

Everton boss Frank Lampard has used his programme notes to underline how important his team's win was against Manchester United 11 days ago, which means they are searching for a third successive victory at home.

"The only way to gain complete buy-in and trust in your approach is to win matches," he writes. "I hate an up-and-down pattern. Winning a few games on the spin completely changes the picture, and the mood around an entire club transforms."

He also praises his players' work-ethic, saying their numbers stack up with their opponents, and says he "can't wait to feel the togetherness between the players and supporters" at Goodison Park again. "I've fallen in love with the place already."

As if to underline that, Everton have earned 79% of their points at home this season, which is a Premier League high.

Patrick Vieira has called on his Crystal Palace players to bounce back from their FA Cup semi-final defeat by Chelsea when they take on Newcastle.

The Eagles, beaten 2-0 at Wembley, are clear of trouble in the league and a top-half finish could yet be achieved in Vieira's first season in charge.

"When you go through the season there are periods where you learn about the players," the Palace boss said.

"It’s a period where we will learn a lot about what the players want to achieve, and what we want to do as a football club.

"I am not going to tolerate a lack of concentration and hard work."

Mason Mount is making his 100th Premier League appearance.

At 23 years and 100 days old, he becomes the youngest player to reach the landmark for Chelsea since John Obi Mikel, in February 2010.

He's also the fourth youngest overall to reach 100 for the club.

Steve Conroy: Chelsea just need 12 points from 8 games for Champions League football next season. But we often do it the hard way so no guarantees!

The highest Brighton have ever finished in English football's league pyramid is 13th, in 1982.

Graham Potter's side are currently 10th, with a three point lead over Crystal Palace, who sit in 13th spot.

If Brighton can hold on to their present position and secure a top half finish for the first time in their history, it would be a magnificent effort.
