Arsenal and Man Utd's opportunity to raise Tottenham Champions League question for Antonio Conte

Antonio Conte and his Tottenham team will be praying that Saturday's 1-0 home defeat against Brighton & Hove Albion does not prove too costly in the top-four race come the final day. In excellent form prior to the game following seven wins from their last nine league encounters, Spurs were not at the races and were duly punished following Leandro Trossard's late winner.

Looking to be a goal that could prove decisive in the race for a Champions League spot with Arsenal and Manchester United kicking off at 3pm, thankfully the Gunners didn't take full advantage of Tottenham's defeat as they themselves lost 1-0 away at Southampton.

Manchester United, on the other hand, needed a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick to beat basement boys Norwich City 3-2, with West Ham only collecting a point against struggling Burnley on Sunday. Tottenham remain in fourth following last weekend's results but the Red Devils have now leapfrogged Arsenal and both teams are three points behind Spurs, with West Ham trailing by a further two points.
