His first return to West Ham since his departure almost two years ago, but it’s also his 750th game as a Premier League manager. Only Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger sit ahead of him on that list. And on top of all of that, it’s Moyes’ 63rd birthday today as well! West Ham v Everton (15: 00 BST) Matt Jarvis Former West Ham winger on Football Focus West Ham fans are very passionate. All they expect is their players to wear that shirt with pride, and they have been able to see that in recent weeks. If they can keep that momentum going, then this will be huge for them. West Ham v Everton (15: 00 BST) West Ham picked up what could prove another crucial point at Crystal Palace on Monday night, ensuring they enter the final five rounds of fixtures with a two-point lead over Tottenham. Everton, meanwhile, were disappointed to lose the first Premier League Merseyside derby at Hill Dickinson Stadium last weekend. It is the Hammers who have the better of the recent head-to-head record, unbeaten in the last four Premier League meetings between these sides. However, each of the past three have been drawn, including a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture in September. Wolves v Spurs (15: 00 BST) Incredibly, Wolves and Spurs have combined to lose an eyewatering 80 matches
since the start of last season, leading some to label this afternoon's encounter L Classico. Wolves have been beaten in 42 Premier League matches out of their past 71 while Spurs have lost 38. These two teams are also the lowest point scorers of any teams to have played across both 2024-25 and 2025-26 with just 59 for Wolves and 69 for Spurs out of a possible 213. There seems to be something about the New Year which doesn't agree with Tottenham. Spurs have won just one of their past 27 Premier
League matches played across the months of January, February, March, April and May, losing 18 of those. It's been 22 games since their last win in the second half of the season and if that run extends to 23 today, time will surely be running out on their 48-year stay in the top flight. Wolves v Tottenham (15: 00, BST) Nick Mashiter BBC Sport football news reporter at Molineux It has been 118 days since Tottenham last won in the Premier League - a 1-0 victory at Crystal Palace in December. If they want to avoid joining Wolves in the Championship next season then Roberto De Zerbi needs to find the magic touch following a defeat at Sunderland and last week's dramatic draw with Brighton. They return to the Midlands next Sunday at Aston Villa before games with Leeds, Chelsea and Everton to finish the season and time is running out to save themselves. Liverpool v Crystal Palace (15: 00 BST) Neil Johnston BBC Sport at Anfield Will today be the day Alexander Isak starts and finishes a match for Liverpool for the first time? The Sweden striker, of course, missed a chunk of pre-season training before his acrimonious departure from Newcastle and has been injured for parts of this campaign. But the British record £125m signing has yet to complete a full 90 minutes for Liverpool since joining last September, I spoke to a couple of Reds fans outside Anfield about Isak, who has scored just three times for Liverpool. "It hasn't gone so well for him so far, " Mattias Astrom, who has travelled from Sweden for today's game, told me. "He needs confidence and he has to score. That's why Liverpool bought him - to score goals. Maybe he can start fresh next season. " Fredde Andersson said: "I was excited when Liverpool signed Isak. But he's not the player he was at Newcastle last season. Now Hugo Ekitike is injured, maybe he will get more minutes. " Liverpool v Crystal Palace (15: 00 BST) It's not been the start to life Alexander Isak will have wanted at Liverpool after his £125m move from Newcastle in the summer. The Reds striker has just returned from a three-month lay-off with a broken leg but is clearly lacking sharpness as Liverpool struggle to involve him in games. With Hugo Ekitike out for a long time with a ruptured Achilles, the Reds need the Swede to step up. Liverpool v Crystal Palace (15: 00 BST) Defeat for Aston Villa means Liverpool can return to the top four this afternoon, but they do not enjoy facing this Crystal Palace side. Crystal Palace have beaten Liverpool three times this season and could make it a fourth at Anfield today. Oliver Glasner's side beat the Reds in the Community Shield, were the first team to beat Liverpool this term. and then knocked them out of the League Cup with a 3-0 win at Anfield. Wolves v Spurs (15: 00 BST) The Tottenham players have been warming-up before kick-off at Molineux this afternoon wearing T shirts emblazoned with the slogan 'Together - Spurs Against Racism. ' Earlier this week the club condemned the 'vile, dehumanising' abuse aimed at defender Kevin Danso, whose slip paved the way for Brighton's last-gasp equaliser in a crucial 2-2 draw at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last Saturday. Liverpool v Crystal Palace (15: 00 BST) Neil Johnston BBC Sport at Anfield A huge day for Freddie Woodman. Not only is Liverpool's third-choice keeper starting a Premier League match for the Reds for the first time, he's doing it against his boyhood club. Croydon-born Woodman was on the books of Crystal Palace as a youth player and was a ball boy at Selhurst Park. "I grew up supporting Palace, " he said after last week's win at Everton, when Woodman came on for the injured Giorgi Mamardashvili. There were reports first-choice keeper Alisson could be back today after returning to training following injury. But it is Woodman, 29, who gets the nod to start. FT: Fulham 1-0 Aston Villa Aston Villa Here's what Aston Villa boss Unai Emery has had to say following his side's 1-0 loss to Fulham earlier, speaking to TNT Sports: "We have lost a really good opportunity, the players did everything we were planning but we needed to be more clinical. "The match was pretty even - sometimes for us sometimes for them. We created a few chances to score, it was very difficult. They have good players and coach and to beat teams like Fulham is for us something we must work on because that can happen. "We needed fresh legs, they're tired. The players tried to keep the same game plan we had at the beginning. We had chances with Ollie Watkins, Tammy Abraham but we couldn't get in their box. We needed to better occupy the spaces in their box. We did everything we were planning but sometimes we are scoring sometimes not like today. It was a tight match and they score one goal and we lost. "It's going to be very difficult. My message is the same - keep going, keep trying to get better each week. " West Ham v Everton (15: 00 BST) Pat Nevin Former Everton winger Last week I was at the first Merseyside derby at Hill Dickinson Stadium, where Everton fans were left devastated by Virgil van Dijk stealing all three points in the 100th minute. For the Blues, this day should represent something bigger than a Merseyside derby. The stunning new stadium, the noise, the passion and above all the numbers there, underlined that Everton now have the chance to become one of the very top clubs again. That stadium filled with 53, 000 fans will be a huge incentive for players to come. With David Moyes in charge the future is not only looking secure but exhilarating. After just over a year, Everton are challenging for a European place instead of fighting against relegation year after year. This summer will be bring reinforcements, a full-back, another centre midfielder and a striker. Get these right and the Hill Dickinson will be among the most feared – and to some of us enjoyable – places to watch football anywhere. Wolves v Tottenham (15: 00 BST) Chris Waddle Former Newcastle & England winger on Football Focus Spurs have got to go for it. They have got to come out and stamp their authority. The key with football is confidence. If you have confidence, then you have a chance of winning games. Tottenham have been so low on confidence, making stupid mistakes, and it has cost them massively. They have got to produce against a team which is already relegated. There are no excuses today. West Ham v Everton (15: 00 BST) It is less than three years since David Moyes guided West Ham to a first
major trophy in 43 years by defeating Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League final in
Prague. Now, with the Hammers battling relegation, Moyes has his sights on leading Everton to European football for the first time since the 2017-18 campaign, when the Toffees featured in the Europa League. If his Everton side can move closer to achieving that today, it could have significant repercussions for his former club. .. Unbelievable! There was still time for another late twist in a truly remarkable end to the National League season. After Rochdale appeared to have snatched the title with their 95th-minute breakthrough, York City squeezed in a 103rd-minute equaliser to finish top by two points! Wolves v Spurs (15: 00 BST) It's quite unbelievable to think that Spurs haven't won a game in the Premier League since December. They have won just seven times this season but they have to make that eight today away at relegated Leeds. Up next for Spurs are Villa, Leeds, Chelsea and Everton. Tough. .. Wolves v Spurs (15: 00 BST) Even with three points today, Roberto De Zerbi is under no illusion that Spurs will be out of trouble. "Anyway, if we win in Wolverhampton, it is not finished yet. There are four other games, but I think now we deserve to win a game. "Also with Brighton, I knew before the game it is one of the best teams in the Premier League in this moment. After their game against Chelsea, everyone knows. We played a good game and deserved to win. " According to Opta's supercomputer, it is now 99% likely the final relegation spot will be taken by either Tottenham or West Ham. Spurs are now 61. 01% favourites to go down, while the Hammers have a 37. 98% chance of being relegated. Opta thinks both Leeds and Forest are all but safe - their chances of relegation have narrowed significantly to less than 1%. We've got just five game weeks to go in the Premier League and there is still one relegation spot up for grabs. Wolves and Burnley know they'll be playing Championship football next season - but will it be Spurs or West Ham who join them? In the huge title showdown between the top two in the National League, Rochdale appear to have clinched the title in the most dramatic fashion! On the brink of finishing as runners-up with the score at 0-0 against York City, they have just scored in the 95th-minute to move top as it stands. If it stays like this, Rochdale will finish top on 108 points, while York City, on 107 points, will have to try their luck in the Play-Offs. You can catch the final moments of that one here.
