The last words

The Soccer Saturday panel answer some of the key questions ahead of the Premier League's final day.

Thommo, Charlie, Le Tiss and Merse give us their final-day thoughts

The Premier League season is set for a spectacular culmination on Sunday afternoon with matters still to be decided at the top and bottom of the table. Manchester City will be looking to stay one step ahead of their illustrious neighbours Manchester United and win their first top flight title in 44 years. Arsenal, Tottenham and Newcastle, meanwhile, are intent on snaring third place and a guaranteed spot in next year's Champions League. Plus, at the bottom of the table, Bolton and QPR are striving to avoid the fate already suffered by Wolves and Blackburn - relegation to the Championship. There are a host of key questions ahead of the final fixtures of the season, and Soccer Saturday pundits Phil Thompson, Charlie Nicholas, Matt Le Tissier and Paul Merson have done their best to answer them for us...

WHO WILL WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE?

Thommo: I can't see Man City not doing it. They have experience of winning lots of things individually, if not as a team, and QPR have a horrendous away record. Mark Hughes' team are battling to stay up and that last-minute winner by Djibril Cisse against Stoke will have given them a boost. Rangers will fight all the way and that will give Manchester United hope, but City should get the win they need. Charlie: It has to be Man City. They can taste it and won't require any motivation. The crowd, too, will be so pumped up. I watched Queens Park Rangers last week and they got a good win, but I just cannot see anything other than City going for this from the whistle and becoming the new champions. I expect Man United to get the win at Sunderland to keep the pressure on but it won't be enough. Le Tiss: I can't see any way that Man City won't win the Premier League. QPR's away form has been abysmal and with so much on the line for City I would be very surprised if QPR got anything out of that game. City have so much quality in their team, and are jam-packed with top-drawer international footballers, so I'm sure they can cope with the occasion. Merse: I'd be shocked if Man City are not champions by Sunday evening. People say they are under pressure, but the pressure was on them at Newcastle - a far better team than QPR - and they came through that one. They took their time, didn't panic when it was still 0-0 after 70 minutes and came through in very impressive style. Yet again on Sunday there's no rush for them. They've got 90 minutes to score a goal. They'll win, no drama.
