Team news and statistics for the final round of games of the FA premiership season.

Today

Arsenal (1) v Everton (13)

Arsenal reserve goalkeeper Stuart Taylor is set to be given the chance to secure a Premiership winners' medal. Richard Wright replaces the rested David Seaman but Taylor is lined up to come on later on. Arsenal will be without Martin Keown, who will not risk a bruised foot after being called up for the World Cup, but Thierry Henry, Tony Adams and Dennis Bergkamp should be fit to return.

Boss David Moyes is considering resting - at least to the bench - Everton's World Cup-bound stars. Joe-Max Moore is already with the US squad, and it is likely Swedish pair Niclas Alexandersson and Tobias Linderoth, Denmark's Thomas Gravesen and the Republic of Ireland's Lee Carsley could be left out. Moyes is already without the suspended Duncan Ferguson, Alessandro Pistone and Nick Chadwick - both with groin strains - and Jesper Blomqvist with an Achilles problem.

Last season: Arsenal 4 Everton 1, Everton 2 Arsenal 0.

Last five league matches: Arsenal W W W W W, Everton W L D W L.

Also absent will be Brad Friedel, who has joined up early with the US' World Cup party, and the injured Stig Inge Bjornebye and Craig Hignett.

United States international Eddie Lewis will be on the Fulham bench while striker Barry Hayles starts his three-match ban for violent conduct. Rufus Brevett's muscle strain is expected to give Jon Harley the starting berth at left back. Maik Taylor will have a rare first-team outing as regular number one Edwin van der Sar is recovering from the minor elbow operation.

Aston Villa will be without left back JLloyd Samuel with a groin strain but club captain Paul Merson is back after a five-game absence. Midfielder Ian Taylor is missing again with a hamstring strain as Villa bid to secure a place in this summer's InterToto Cup.

Leeds Utd (6) v Middlesbrough (10)

Robbie Fowler and Mark Viduka will both miss Leeds' final game of the season. Fowler received a hip injury in the 1-0 win at Derby two weeks ago while Viduka (ankle) is still out. Olivier Dacourt (hamstring) is a doubt after picking up a knock during Gary Kelly's testimonial against Celtic. Goalkeeper Paul Robinson, striker Michael Bridges and midfielder Lucas Radebe may also play some part after successful midweek returns from long-term absences.

Middlesbrough will be without former France under-21 international Franck Queudrue, who starts a three-match suspension, and striker Alen Boksic (Achilles). Szilard Nemeth and Noel Whelen could form the strike force while reserve midfielder Stuart Downing could get his chance following the return of loan signing Benito Carbone to Bradford earlier this week.

Last season: Leeds 1 Middlesbrough 1, Middlesbrough 1 Leeds 2.

Last five league matches: Leeds L W W L W, Middlesbrough W W L L L.

Leicester (20) v Tottenham (7)

Leicester boss Micky Adams will be able to field a strong side as a number of important players come back from injury. Dennis Wise is available and Alan Rogers, Andy Impey and Brian Deane could all figure. Youngster Matthew Piper will keep his place, with teenagers Jon Ashton and Jon Stevenson on the bench.

Sergei Rebrov returns from illness to boost the Tottenham squad but Tim Sherwood is ruled out with a shin injury. Spurs need a win at Filbert Street to finish seventh in the Premiership.

Liverpool (2) v Ipswich (18)

Liverpool defender Markus Babbel, sidelined since August with a muscle-numbing condition, will not be allowed a five-minute cameo in Liverpool's final match. Babbel had hoped to find a place on Liverpool's substitutes' bench. But, with the Reds needing three points to secure second place, manager Gerard Houllier has opted not to take that risk as his team try to secure second place.

Ipswich's player of the year Mark Venus returns after a groin problem for their must-win match at Anfield. George Burley's team are also boosted by John McGreal and Tommy Miller recovering from viruses. Record £4.8 million signing Matteo Sereni (thigh) is fit again but may not oust Andy Marshall in goal.

Last season: Ipswich 1 Liverpool 1, Liverpool 0 Ipswich 1.

Last five league matches: Liverpool W W W L W, Ipswich D L L W L.

Top scorers: Michael Owen (Liverpool) 27; Marcus Bent, Marcus Stewart (Ipswich) 10.

Match odds: H 1/3; A 11/2; D 7/2.

Referee: S Dunn (Bristol)

Manchester Utd (3) v Charlton (14)

Manchester United's Nicky Butt is definitely out with a knee ligament injury and United must wait to see if Denis Irwin has recovered from a bruised hip.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is set to be rested again after being on the bench in midweek. Ronny Johnsen trained yesterday after recovering from an ankle knock and may be involved in defence along with Ronnie Wallwork.

Claus Jensen returns to the Charlton squad for the first time since the 2-1 home defeat by Aston Villa on January 21st. Following his original knee injury his return was delayed by a groin problem. Portuguese centre back Jorge Costa plays his last match before returning to FC Porto following a five-month loan spell at The Valley.

Last season: Man Utd 2 Charlton 1, Charlton 3 Man Utd 3.

Last five league matches: Man Utd W W W W L, Charlton L L D L D.

Top scorers: Ruud van Nistelrooy (Man Utd) 36; Jason Euell (Charlton) 13.

Match odds: H 1/5; A 10/1; D 4/1.

Southampton (15) v Newcastle (4)

Southampton defender Wayne Bridge has recovered from his calf strain and will continue his run of successive appearances. Leading scorer Marian Pahars returns to partner James Beattie in attack after missing the defeat at Aston Villa with a groin problem. Defender Paul Williams faces a late test on a knee injury while goalkeeper Paul Jones and midfielders Chris Marsden and Matthew Oakley are already ruled out.

Newcastle boss Bobby Robson has few injury problems with Andy Griffin recovering from a long-term thigh problem and Marcelino remaining on the sidelines with a damaged ankle. The only fresh problem is a slight hamstring strain for Chilean midfielder Clarence Acuna, who will not be risked with Jamie McClen and Brian Kerr drafted in as cover.

Last season: Newcastle 1 Southampton 1, Southampton 2 Newcastle 0.

Last five league matches: Southampton L W D L L, Newcastle D W W D W.

Referee: A D'Urso (Billericay)

Sunderland (17) v Derby (19)

Sunderland will be without suspended midfielder Gavin McCann. Claudio Reyna returns from suspension but Stefan Schwarz and Paul Thirwell will battle with Jason McAteer for McCann's central berth. Defender Emerson Thome (knee) and midfielder Julio Arca (groin) are both back in training but the game comes too soon for either man.

Derby manager John Gregory has already axed foreign stars Fabrizio Ravanelli, Giorgi Kinkladze, Horacio Carbonari and Youl Mawene from his plans. Youngsters like Richard Jackson, Adam Bolder, Ian Ewatt and Adam Murray are set to feature as Gregory looks for homegrown replacements.

Last season: Derby 1 Sunderland 0, Sunderland 2 Derby 1.

Last five league matches: Sunderland W L L L D, Derby L L L L L.

Top scorers: Kevin Phillips (Sunderland) 12; Fabrizio Ravanelli (Derby) 11.

West Ham (8) v Bolton (16)

Paolo Di Canio has failed to recover from a knee injury in time to lead West Ham in their final game of the season. Sebastian Schemmel also misses out, while Nigel Winterburn will be making his last appearance for the club.

Danish midfielder Stig Tofting could return for Bolton after a seven-match absence with a foot injury. Tofting was named in Denmark's World Cup squad this week and is anxious to prove his fitness ahead of the tournament. Fellow midfielders Paul Warhurst and Kevin Nolan are doubtful with calf and groin problems.
