On this day we will have as a highlight the match between Leicester City and Manchester United, which will be played this Saturday, April 02, 2022, at Old Trafford, the home of Manchester United.

United is currently in sixth place in the table, with a record of 14 wins, 8 draws, and 7 losses, just 4 points behind Arsenal, who is in fourth place.
On the other hand, we have Leicester City, another of the very good teams that are having many problems this season, and it seems that they are only going to fight to be in the middle of the table and avoid losing positions. Leicester is in 10th place in the standings, with a very poor record of 10 wins, 6 draws, and 11 losses. Although they are level on points with Aston Villa, Leicester City has to correct many errors in their game if they want to climb positions and fight for Europa League places.

The match that is responsible for closing day 31 of the Premier League is, this between Crystal Palace and Arsenal, which will be played this Monday, April 04, 2022, at Selhurst Park Stadium, home of Crystal Palace at 02:00 p.m. ET
Crystal Palace is currently in twelfth place in the table with 34 points, 12 points ahead of the relegation zone, so they can be completely unconcerned about losing the category this season, the main objective for a club that never gives a fight for European positions. They have alternated between wins and draws in their last 4 games and the truth is that their current moment is not so bad, losing only one of the last 10 games.
Arsenal complied with recovering all the matches it had pending, and it was a job that it did in a great way, winning most of the games and climbing to fourth place in the general table, even with a pending appointment to play, taking 3 points from difference to their escorts, an amount that they will seek to lengthen in this opportunity. They will have great chances of achieving this task if we take into account that they have won 6 of the 7 most recent Premier League games.
Crystal Palace vs. Arsenal Betting Pick: Arsenal
