Manchester City - Leeds 0:0
The champion returned to the top of the Premier League after a 0:3 victory over West Ham and with a record of a single game in which they did not win in the last 15 games in all formats (a draw against Bayern Munich in the second leg of the quarter-finals of the Champions League), Pep Guardiola's players are racing for the third title in a row.
Now against Leeds in the debut of Sam Allardyce on the lines, Kevin de Brauna returned to the Citizens team, who was absent for the last two games, and he is collaborating with Julian Albers, Riyad Mahrez, Phil Foden and Erling Holland in the front part in light of the light rotation that Guardiola made before the match against Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Champions League this week
Ederson returned to the goal and the young Rico Lewis also went 11 at the expense of John Stones, who, like Rhodri, remained on the bench.
As for Leeds who are in desperate need of sensational points in the relegation battles, Allardyce chose to shock when he benched goalkeeper Ilan Malia and started with Joel Robles who is playing in the Premier League for the first time since May 2017. Leeds are known to be above the red line,

Bournemouth - Chelsea 0:0
Six consecutive losses, nine games without a win and a shocking ability on the part of the team turned the game between the Blues and the Cherries into a surprising battle for the 12th place in the table.
The host with 6 wins in the last 9 games, which helped them escape from the bottom and get closer to the middle of the table.
Frank Lampard is looking for first points since replacing Graham Potter and trying to get some breathing room for London's most pressed club in the city's little derby.
The guest will want to maintain the home balance against the Blues, when in the last two games at home they did not lose to Chelsea and in 2019 they defeated with a resounding 0:4.

Tottenham - Crystal Palace 0:0
Two teams that arrive at the London derby with completely opposite momentums.
The roosters with a single win in the last 7 rounds, while the eagles have 4 of them at the same time.
Tottenham are still licking their wounds after the dramatic 4:3 loss to Liverpool, after the team came back from a three-goal deficit to equalize in extra time, but a dramatic goal by Diogo Jota won the game for the Reds.
Ryan Mason is looking for a first win as caretaker manager of the hosts since replacing Antoine Conte's assistant Christian Stallini, while Palace will be looking for a first away win against the Roosters since 1997.
Still in the fight for Europe.

Wolves - Aston Villa 0:0
Aston Villa's run came to a screeching halt with a 1-0 loss to Manchester United in the last round, but Unai Emery's side's fight for a place in Europe next season is still alive and breathing.
The Wolves have not yet secured a stay and after a 6:0 defeat to Brighton in the last round, they will try to recover at home at the expense of the guest who has not beaten them away since 2020.

Liverpool - Brentford (19:30, Sport1)
The change of Trent Alexander-Arnold and his shift to link is one of the main factors in the success of the Reds in recent times.
In one of the club's weakest seasons, Klopp's team is already on a streak of 5 consecutive victories in the Premier League (the most this season), and the Mighty Reds will look to increase the balance to 6 in a difficult home game against Brentford.
Thiago Alcantara ended the season at the host, while on the other hand Thomas Frank's team returned to the winning track with two of these against Chelsea and Nottingham Forest, but still have never won at Anfield.
