While the Premier League trophy itself has been done and dusted for quite a while, the race is definitely on for the two remaining Champions League positions behind the two Manchester clubs. Arsenal and Everton are both sides that didn’t exactly boast bright finishes, but have managed to get the results when they matter most in the latter stage of the season and you can expect some serious fireworks in tomorrow’s fixture since both teams still have much to play for.

Arsenal play host to David Moyes men and will be looking to put in a much more thorough shift than their result at Norwich at the weekend.
Arsene Wenger’s men go into the match up on 59 points with Everton sitting at 56 - just knocking on the door behind fourth place Chelsea - who boast 58 points and are just hanging on themselves.
The London side are getting the distinct edge from the bookmakers with a price of 3/4 outright being floated. Those expecting Everton to really make a contest of this one can get a solid 7/2 listing on the 90 minutes victory.
The draw can be backed at 11/4 and you reckon that neither side will really be playing for that type of result.
Expect Everton to deploy a very physical mindset as they look to rush Arsenal off the ball. Theo Walcott will likely be deployed again and he will be looking to get in behind Phil Jagielka early, in order to force Everton to attack. Punters can lock in a solid 7/2 price on Arsenal to win and Walcott to score at any point in the match. The bet is void if he fails to start.
Olivier Giroud is the outright most likely scorer in the match and the only one who trades at odds on. William Hill lists him at 10/11 to score at any point. Everton will be looking to Nikila Jelavic, who can be backed at 9/4.
Marouane Fellaini can be backed at 11/4 for an anytime goal, while some may opt for Tomas Rosicky - who returns from injury and can be backed at 7/2.
