Premier League preview: Key games at the top and bottom on Super Sunday

Super Sunday serves up potentially decisive battles at the top and bottom of the Premier League as Saturday Night Football offers Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs' first game as a manager.

Before Sunday's triple bill, there are six games on Saturday which conclude with a landmark occasion at Old Trafford. Following the sacking of David Moyes on Tuesday, Manchester United have placed record appearance holder Giggs in charge for their final four matches of the season. Giggs has described being given the chance to manage United as the 'proudest moment of my life' and the Welshman is guaranteed a rapturous reception from a group of fans who have had little to cheer at home this season. Sixth place, and a guaranteed spot in the Europa League, is not yet out of United's reach, but Giggs will likely need maximum points from his four games at the helm, three of which are at home. Opposing Giggs will be another rookie boss, with Neil Adams having suffered defeats by Fulham and Liverpool since replacing Chris Hughton at Norwich. Adams' side are two points above the relegation zone, but also still have Chelsea and Arsenal to play, so Norwich will be hoping to take heart from Sunderland's shock win at Stamford Bridge last weekend. The weekend starts on the south coast where Everton have the chance to leapfrog Arsenal into fourth spot by beating Southampton at St Mary's. Everton responded to their seven-match winning run being ended by Crystal Palace with a 2-0 victory over Man Utd last weekend, which proved to be the final match of their former manager Moyes' tenure with the outgoing champions. Roberto Martinez has enjoyed an impressive first season at the Goodison Park helm and will be determined to crown it with Champions League qualification. Southampton can also point to a positive campaign, but an inconsistent run over the last few weeks has left Mauricio Pochettino's side in eighth. Back-to-back wins over Aston Villa and Norwich City, prior to last weekend's defeat at Tottenham, have given Fulham renewed hope of climbing out of the bottom three. Felix Magath's side are two points from safety and tackle Hull City on Saturday at Craven Cottage before taking on Stoke City away and then Palace at home. The Tigers beat Fulham 6-0 at the KC Stadium back in December and have subsequently reached the FA Cup final for the first time, with Arsenal awaiting at Wembley next month. However, Premier League survival is not yet assured and, with games against Man Utd and Everton still to come, Hull will not want to see their six-point buffer to the relegation zone eaten into. West Brom are another side still involved in the relegation struggle and Pepe Mel has challenged his team to pick up four more points to secure safety. A home date with West Ham, who are three points shy of the fabled 40-mark, would present a seemingly favourable opportunity for West Brom. However, West Brom have conceded late equalisers against Cardiff and Tottenham in their last two home games, having also chucked away a three-goal lead in the latter contest. West Ham are on a three-match losing run which has checked their bid to wrap up survival, and Sam Allardyce's side still have to face Tottenham and Man City. The Liberty Stadium will stage a game between another two clubs not yet certain of playing Premier League football next season. Swansea's 2-1 win at out-of-sorts Newcastle last weekend, which was secured thanks to Wilfried Bony goals at the end of each half, has moved Garry Monk's men six points clear of the drop zone. A further three points at home to Aston Villa are likely to be enough for Swansea. Villa, meanwhile, are five points above the bottom three and conclude their season with away games at White Hart Lane and the Etihad Stadium. A four-game losing run was halted by last week's 0-0 draw at home to Southampton, but Villa have not won away from home since New Year's Day. Stoke are aiming to finish in the Premier League's top 10 for the first time and a run of just one defeat in eight games has given Mark Hughes' side an excellent chance of fulfilling that objective. The Britannia Stadium remains one of the most formidable venues for opposition teams in the top flight and only Norwich and Liverpool have come away with three points this season. Stoke have already beaten Chelsea, Man Utd and Arsenal at home this season and will fancy their chances against Tottenham. Tim Sherwood's side have not won away from White Hart Lane for two months, but are in a strong position to finish in sixth and book European football again next season. Monday Night Football sees Arsenal welcome Newcastle to the Emirates Stadium, with last season's corresponding fixture finishing 7-3 to the hosts. Arsenal's 1-0 win at Newcastle on the final day of last term also clinched Champions League qualification again for Arsene Wenger's side and holding onto fourth spot remains the Gunners' priority once more. Successive wins over West Ham and Hull have put Arsenal back in the driving seat, and they do have a seemingly easier run-in than Everton. Newcastle head to north London on a run of five consecutive defeats and have failed to build on a solid platform which had been put down in the first half of the season.
