Newcastle United v Arsenal live stream, Monday 16 May, 8pm BST
Arsenal will retake control of the race for fourth place if they beat Newcastle on Monday night.
Although Chelsea could theoretically drop down to fifth, the battle for the final Champions League qualification spot is realistically a straight shoot-out between Arsenal and Tottenham.
Spurs got the better of their arch-rivals in a rearranged fixture last Thursday, as Harry Kane's brace and a strike from Son Heung-min earned Antonio Conte's side a much-needed win. Tottenham then edged out Burnley on Sunday, leaving them two points clear
Arsenal's fate remains in their own hands, but there is a feeling that the momentum is now with Spurs. However, a victory on Monday could change everything. That would leave Arsenal in fourth going into the final weekend of the campaign, when Everton will visit the Emirates Stadium and Tottenham will travel to relegated Norwich.
Newcastle have lost back-to-back games to Liverpool and Manchester City of late, but they are still one of the division's top-performing sides this calendar year. Indeed, only the top two and Tottenham have accrued more points than Eddie Howe's men since the start of 2022, while Newcastle have won six of their last seven games in front of their own fans.
Arsenal will have to make do without Rob Holding, whose red card against Tottenham means he is suspended for this crunch clash. Kieran Tierney and Thomas Partey are still sidelined with injuries, but Gabriel Magalhaes has an outside chance of being fit enough to start at St James' Park.
Newcastle will be unable to call upon the services of midfield trio Joe Willock, Isaac Hayden and Jonjo Shelvey for the visit of Arteta's side. Jamal Lewis and Federico Fernandez are also injured, but Ryan Fraser is hopeful of being involved in the matchday squad after returning to training late last week. Callum Wilson is likely to replace Chris Wood up top.
Kick-off is at 8pm BST on Monday 16 May, and the game is being broadcast live by Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier league football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
