In a catch-up game against Leicester City, the Blues drew 1-1 (1-1) with the German team manager and can only theoretically be caught by fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur. Chelsea, who lost on penalties against Liverpool FC with Jürgen Klopp last Saturday, had already qualified for the Champions League.
Everton FC secured relegation. After trailing 2-0, local rivals Liverpool defeated Crystal Palace 3-2 (0-2) and moved four points clear of the first relegation zone before the last matchday. Dominic Calvert-Lewin (85th) scored the winning goal shortly before the end.
Burnley left the relegation zone thanks to the 1-1 (1-0) win at Aston Villa. Anyone who accompanies Watford FC and Norwich City into the second division will decide between Burnley and third-bottom Leeds United with the same number of points.
