How Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham's fixtures compare to Man Utd and other Premier League rivals

Premier League football is set to resume from June 17 and the battles at both ends of the table will be renewed

The Premier League has agreed to a provisional return date of June 17 and that will reignite the crucial battles at both ends of the table.

While Liverpool are runaway leaders at the top and destined for their first Premier League title, there is still much to be decided beneath them - including the battle for a top-four finish, securing Europa League football and the fight against relegation.

With Manchester City’s two-year ban from UEFA competitions, which has been appealed and will be heard by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in the coming weeks, the fight for Champions League football has been blown wide open as fifth place could secure a spot in the group stages.

That would also push the spots for Europa League qualification down to seventh spot and potentially even eighth if this season’s FA Cup winners have already qualified for European football.

Coronavirus and football

Coronavirus is having an impact across sport in Europe, with football league schedules suspended in several countries, including in England, Spain and Italy. But what happens next?

- The Champions League and Europa League have been suspended, and UEFA have announced plans for what could happen next.

- The Premier League clubs are set for more talks with a key vote over the next steps regarding training.

- Decisions have been made regarding other leagues across Europe, including in France, Holland and Germany.

- Decisions have been made regarding the National League and other non-league football.

- We asked the fans what they want to see happen, following the suspension of football in the Premier League. Here's what they said.

Meanwhile, the battle at the bottom is also extremely tight with a number of teams fighting to avoid relegation to the Championship - so the strength of opponents in the remaining matches could prove to be decisive.

Taking a look at the average position of opponents in the remaining fixture paints a picture for Premier League clubs - and it’s bad news for Bournemouth and Aston Villa in their relegation battle, as well as Sheffield United in their fight to secure European football.

Meanwhile, Manchester City and Manchester United both have the easier set of fixtures to complete the season, with Wolves also being given a boost in their battle to secure a spot in Europe for the second season in a row.
