Sunday’s Premier League programme features games involving teams in the race for Europe as well as the battle for survival - it's all to play for, and we look at a selection of the best bets.

Everton vs Chelsea

2pm, Sky Sports Premier League

The Toffees may start the game five points adrift of safety depending on the outcome of Burnley’s trip to Watford on Saturday. They have six games left, including a final-day trip to Arsenal, to prevent relegation and end a 68-year tenure in the top flight.

They were much improved defensively last time out against Liverpool with a great work ethic, but ultimately came away with nothing. They have won one in six and scored just once in the last three and are at 4.7 for the win and 3.65 to draw.

Chelsea need seven points from five games to guarantee a top-four finish although missed chances at Old Trafford meant they had to settle for a draw on Thursday.

It was not the first time this season the Blues have drawn games they should have won, and a trip to Goodison Park offers an opportunity for all three points, even if they are up against a club managed by Stamford Bridge legend Frank Lampard.

Their away form has brought them 37 of their 66 points and they are at 1.8 to win and at 2.74 to win to nil.

Recommended bet: Chelsea win to nil @ 2.74

Tottenham Hotspur vs Leicester

2pm

The race for fourth between north London rivals Spurs and Arsenal took another twist with the Gunners now back in pole position. Antonio Conte’s side have shown worrying form in the last couple of games without a single shot on target having scored nine in the previous two. 

They need to find their shooting boots and facing a Leicester side who may be fatigued following their Thursday evening clash with Roma, presents them with a fine opportunity. They are at 1.46 for the win with a draw at 4.8 while Heung-Min Son is at 2.02 to score anytime. Tottenham to win and both teams to score is at 2.78.

The Foxes were buoyed by the return of Jamie Vardy to the starting line-up against Roma in the Europa Conference League for only his fourth appearance of 2022. The former England striker has scored 12 goals in all competitions this season and is at 2.88 to score anytime. Brendan Rodgers’ side have toiled in recent weeks reflected in their eye-catching odds of 7.4 for the win.

Recommended bet: Tottenham to win/BTTS @ 2.78

West Ham vs Arsenal

4:30pm, Sky Sports Main Event

The Hammers have wobbled domestically in recent weeks with their defence looking vulnerable against Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday despite the return of Kurt Zouma. They have had a packed schedule with the second leg coming next Thursday, and David Moyes must ensure they focus on their Premier League campaign on Sunday.

They are at 4.8 to win with a draw at 3.65. Michail Antonio scored his first goal since February against the Germans and he is at 3.1 to score anytime.

Arsenal have their fate in their own hands after consecutive wins against Chelsea and Manchester United, scoring seven goals in the process. The Gunners exposed United’s defensive frailties last time out although they also wobbled at the back and at times rode their luck. They are at 1.79 for the win and at 3.65 to win/both teams to score. Eddie Nketiah has commanded the spotlight and he is at 2.28 to score anytime.

Recommended bet: Arsenal to win/BTTS @ 3.65

Recommended bets

Chelsea win to nil @ 2.74

Tottenham win/BTS @ 2.78

Arsenal win/BTTS @ 3.65
