The final matches of the season take place simultaneously, with significant implications for European qualifications. Manchester United, having just lost the Europa League final, will face Aston Villa, who are competing for a Champions League spot. United's performance has been disappointing, as they will finish in the bottom half of the table. Villa needs a win and hopes for favorable outcomes in other matches involving Manchester City and Chelsea or Newcastle to secure qualification. Fans' interest may be low for United’s last match, reflecting on their underperformance this season.
All 20 teams will kick off their last matches of the season simultaneously on Sunday, with European qualification still on the line for several teams.
United have little more than their honour to play for, though. The match will be their first since losing the Europa League final to Tottenham on Wednesday.
Their guests, Villa, have far more on the line with a Champions berth still available, and will like their chances against a jetlagged United.
Even a win will not be enough to qualify - they will also need Man City to lose to Fulham, or Chelsea or Newcastle to drop points in their matches.
