EPL Returns: Title Race and Key Fixtures Ahead

After a break for international matches and the Football Association Cup quarter-finals, the English Premier League is set to resume on Tuesday, 1 April.

With just nine gameweeks remaining, Liverpool leads the title race, sitting 12 points ahead of Arsenal, while the battle for European UEFA places remains fierce.

The restart features a packed midweek schedule, including Liverpool vs Everton in the Merseyside derby and Chelsea vs Tottenham in a key London clash. On the same day Manchester United will visit Nottingham Forest, while Arsenal host Fulham.

Liverpool could secure the title as early as 13 April when they face West Ham, needing just 16 points from their final nine matches. Meanwhile, the fight for UEFA Champions League qualification is intensifying, with only five points separating fourth-placed Chelsea and tenth-placed Bournemouth.

The festivities will continue with Manchester City’s clash against Crystal Palace on 12 April and Chelsea versus Everton on 26 April. The Champions League also returns on 8 April, with Arsenal facing Real Madrid and Aston Villa taking on Paris Saint-Germain.

With high stakes at both ends of the table, the final stretch of the season promises plenty of drama.
