English Premier League: Matchday 23 – Satisfying Saturday with eight matches on the day
The last meeting of the day has to be the most anticipated and should be the most entertaining of the weekend as well. Who’s your money on, Arsenal or Chelsea?
Before we talk about the final encounter of the day, let’s talk relegation. Saturday will bring the second relegation brawl in as many weeks. Newcastle vs. Cardiff City can also be labelled 18th place entertains 17th place. The two play directly for 17th place on the Premier League table with only one point severing the English club and Welsh club.
The midtable has little to no room for error. Miss your chances and lose your spot. Everton’s clash involves a new look Saints. The St. Mary’s outfit forms part of this relegation fight and cannot afford to drop a point or more. A win for either, Newcastle or Cardiff City will see Southampton quick sink as they sit equal on points with the Bluebirds.
Tricky to call out a winner with them playing a better brand of football. The Toffees are inconsistent under Silva, as he gets exposed more than often. Another great fixture to home in on.

Truth be told, there really is a mouthwatering fixture coming in the last slot of the day. One of the many famous London disputes draws Saturday Matchday 23 to a close.

Spurs have their own London derby on their hands come Sunday when they travel to Craven Cottage. So all eyes on London till Sunday, once the sun goes down on Saturday night. No room to breath, and time to blink. If you do, you’ll miss all the fun.
