The curtain falls on another Premier League season this afternoon, but Arsenal fans will want to think twice before they reach to the TV remote control.
A huge 1-0 win over Newcastle previous time-out insured a top-two finish for the Gunners, together with a return to the Champions League.
Both performance seemed almost guaranteed for a large part of the season, even when the title challenge of Arsenal faded earlier than expected, but only were confirmed in their penultimate competition.
It means that today’s journey to the south coast to compete against Southampton is a dead rubber, that the five teams under Arsenal fight for their own chair at the top table in Europe.
So, Arsenal -fans hope to tune into the last game of the season will have to look at other means …
Why is Southampton vs Arsenal not on TV today?
The last day of Arsenal was not picked for television reporting in the UK, giving Sky Sports two games and TNT Sport Pick One.
Sky Sports, with their first two picks, will have liverpool champions marked for the season at Crystal Palace before he can finally lift the Premier League trophy for a full Anfield.
Sky Sports will also show Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea, two clubs that qualify in the hope for the Champions League. Both teams have to win to have a chance, with Newcastle, Manchester City and Aston Villa also firmly in the battle to finish in the top five. It is the most striking game of the final round.
Speaking of Villa, TNT Sports will show them that she is taking on Manchester United in Old Trafford, looking for a victory to have some hope to return to the Champions League. United will lick their considerable wounds after losing the Europa League final at Tottenham.
