Matchweek 33: Champions League Race Heats Up

The Premier League returns for Matchweek 33 across the weekend of April 19–21, with ten fixtures that could shape the race for Europe.

The standout fixture is Saturday evening’s clash between Aston Villa and Newcastle, with both clubs firmly in the hunt for Champions League qualification. 

Elsewhere, Leicester could well be relegated this weekend with betting sites giving odds on each game, many of which are still offering free bets ahead of the run-in.

Headline Match: Aston Villa vs Newcastle (Saturday 17:30)

Aston Villa and Newcastle clash at Villa Park in a massive encounter with Champions League implications. 

Villa remain unbeaten at home in 2025, while Eddie Howe’s side are pushing hard for the top-five with improving away form.

Unai Emery's men go into this game after being knocked out of the Champions League by PSG on Tuesday despite a spirited performance at Villa Park.

What the expert says...
Villa’s home form has been exceptional, but Newcastle are quietly putting together results at the business end of the season. This feels like a massive game for the top-five race with both hopeful for finishing in the Champions League spots.
