The 2019/2020 season in Europe’s major leagues is edging towards the end as just two of the top five leagues are still in play.

This weekend will see the final round of fixtures in the Premier League, while it’s the penultimate round of games in the Italian Serie A.

Although the title race is over in England and potentially in Italy, some games carry a lot of importance this weekend.

With matches taking place, it gives fans the chance to make money. And in its usual tradition, Soccernet is providing betting tips for some of these games.

Chelsea vs Wolves (Premier League): This is an important game for both teams as their European aspiration is at stake.

Chelsea go into the game knowing they only need a point to seal a top-four finish while Wolves need a win to be sure of Europa League qualification.

The Blues are currently fourth, but just a point ahead of Leicester City, while Wolves sit in sixth place, but Spurs sit only one point behind in seventh place.

Leicester City vs Manchester United (Premier League): This is the star match of the final round as a win for either side will guarantee a top-four finish.

United sit in the driving seat as they are a point above their opponents, and only need to avoid a defeat to seal a return to the champions league.

Leicester meanwhile were shoo-in for a top-four finish before the league went on a three-month break due to the coronavirus.

However, their form has nosedived since resumption and are in danger of missing out on champions league football- a scenario that was unfathomable as at February.

The Foxes need a win to finish in the top four, but they will need to put in a better performance than the one that saw them concede three times at Tottenham.

A draw may be enough if Chelsea to lose at home to Wolves, but that’s a big if. So the Foxes should edge this one (Leicester City Win or Over 1.5)

Newcastle vs Liverpool (Premier League): Liverpool end their title-winning campaign with a trip to Newcastle. The Reds have been heads and shoulders above every other team this season, and they showed that again in the win over Chelsea last Wednesday.
