Premier League 24/25 finale - What's on in the Premier League today?

Nottingham Forest's historic Champions League dream is still alive as they brace for a dramatic showdown against Chelsea, while Liverpool will finally get their hands on the Premier League trophy.

Nottingham Forest have enjoyed a remarkable renaissance, but they will still end the season with regrets if they fail to reach the Champions League. The two-time European champions last played in the continent's top club competition in 1980/81.

They have been resident in the top five for most of the season, but have lost momentum in recent weeks and must now beat rivals Chelsea and hope Villa or Newcastle drop points.

Even though they may fail to qualify for the Champions League, Forest at least have the comfort of knowing they have secured European football next season.

They finished just outside the relegation spots last season but have roared back under Nuno Espirito Santo, becoming the first team in Premier League history to double their points tally from one season to the next.

Meanwhile, Liverpool's players will at last have the chance to lift the Premier League trophy in front of their own fans after their match against FA Cup winners Crystal Palace on Sunday.

The champions won their first English league title for 30 years in 2020 but were forced to celebrate behind closed doors due to COVID-19 restrictions. If the reaction at Anfield to their trophy triumph last month - sealed with a 5-1 win against Tottenham - is anything to go by, Sunday's party will be one to remember.

 

May 25, 2025

It is difficult to predict what the mood will be like at Old Trafford on Sunday, when Manchester United host top-five contenders Aston Villa. United, who lost 1-0 to Tottenham in the Europa League final on Wednesday, are destined for their lowest league finish since they were relegated in 1974.

Ruben Amorim's men have been desperately poor this season, winning just six league games since the Portuguese took over from the sacked Erik ten Hag in November.

Villa have won just twice at Old Trafford in the Premier League era but will go there with a spring in their step, knowing a win would give them a chance to qualify for next season's Champions League, depending on results elsewhere.

They have little to fear against a United team who are disjointed, toothless and lacking in motivation, with nothing to play for.

Premier League 24/25 finale - Who'll be playing in the Premier League next term?

Sunderland clinched a dramatic 2-1 win against Sheffield United in the Championship play-off final on Saturday. United led the Championship at the end of March before suffering a late collapse that allowed Burnley and Leeds to clinch automatic promotion.

Premier League 24/25 finale - This season's three relegated sides have already been confirmed

For the first time in history, all three newly promoted sides to the Premier League have suffered immediate relegation for two consecutive seasons.

Southampton, Leicester and Ipswich Town have all confirmed their return to the Championship just one year after their promotion. What was once unprecedented has now occurred two years running — a stark indication that the divide between the Premier League and the second tier is becoming increasingly unbridgeable.

Their projected total would mark the worst collective points tally for promoted teams in the Premier League era — a record, remarkably, already set just last season by Sheffield United, Burnley and Luton Town (66 points between them).

Premier League 24/25 finale - What's at stake?

As the English top-flight season comes to an end on Sunday, Forest and Chelsea are among five clubs chasing the three remaining top-five spots, along with Manchester City, Newcastle and Aston Villa.

Unai Emery's Aston Villa travel to face troubled Manchester United, whose misery was compounded by their Europa League final defeat against Tottenham in midweek.
