Troubled Tottenham head to Liverpool on Sunday searching for salvation in their increasingly desperate fight against relegation, while Arsenal can move closer to their first Premier League title for 22 years with a win over Everton.
Manchester United will also meet Aston Villa in a crucial clash in the race for Champions League qualification.
In grave danger of playing in England’s second tier for the first time since 1977-78, Tottenham could hardly have picked a worse venue for their latest attempt to ease the threat of relegation.
If third-bottom West Ham beat Manchester City on Saturday, Igor Tudor’s 16th-placed side will have slipped even closer to oblivion by the time they face Liverpool at Anfield.
Beaten in their last six games in all competitions for the first time in their history, Tottenham are just one point ahead of West Ham and fourth-bottom Nottingham Forest, who host Fulham on Sunday.
They were humiliated in a 5-2 defeat at Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last-16 first leg on Wednesday – a calamitous night that featured Tudor substituting keeper Antonin Kinsky after just 17 minutes due to a pair of mistakes that led directly to goals.

Just eight games lie between Arsenal and their holy grail – a first English crown since Arsene Wenger’s ‘Invincibles’ lifted the Premier League trophy in 2004.
Arsenal are seven points clear of second-placed Manchester City and can extend that lead to 10 points if they beat Everton at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
City, who hold a game in hand on Arsenal heading into this weekend, will kick off at West Ham roughly 30 minutes after the final whistle in the leaders’ match.
But regardless of what City do in their remaining nine games, Mikel Arteta’s men have the destiny of the title in their hands after recovering from a two-game winless run in February by reeling off three consecutive league victories.
Below are the Premier League fixtures scheduled for the weekend:
Saturday
Burnley v Bournemouth
Sunderland v Brighton
Chelsea v Newcastle
Arsenal v Everton
West Ham v Manchester City
Sunday
Crystal Palace v Leeds
Manchester United v Aston Villa
Nottingham Forest v Fulham
