Liverpool host Wolves and Man City travel to Brighton on May 12; Both matches to be shown live on Sky Sports
Wednesday 8 May 2019 14:45, UK
There will be Premier League trophies at Anfield and at Brighton on Sunday, in readiness for either Manchester City or Liverpool being crowned champions.
Ahead of the final day of the season, City can secure back-to-back Premier League titles for the first time in their history with a win over Brighton at the Amex Stadium on Sunday. Kick-off is at 3pm, live on Sky Sports.
But if City do drop points and Liverpool beat Wolves - which is also live on Sky Sports and kicking off at 3pm - the Merseyside club will deliver their first league title since 1990.
Two trophies exist for such an eventuality, and so that one trophy can remain with the reigning champions for the year in which they hold it, while the other is used by the Premier League for various promotional events.
The trophies are identical, with engravings on the base listing the previous winners.
The Premier League has also commissioned two sets of winners medals to be prepared. 40 will head to Anfield, along with interim chief executive Richard Masters to present them, if needed. The other 40 medals will head to the Amex Stadium with the Premier League's interim chair, Claudia Arney.
Any player who has played five or more Premier League games for the title winners will be awarded a medal. If any of the set of 40 remains, they can be awarded by the champions at their discretion.
Liverpool duo Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Alberto Moreno are not eligible for a Premier League winner's medal should the Reds seal the league on Sunday.
Premier League rules state that only players who make five or more appearances in the season automatically get a medal.
But the winning club can use it's discretion to allocate medals to non-eligible players, if they have any spare from their 40 after all eligible players have been recognised.
The last act of The Run In will be shown live on Sky Sports on a defining final day of the Premier League season.
Manchester City's trip to Brighton is live on Sky Sports Main Event from 2.30pm, while Liverpool vs Wolves at Anfield is live on Sky Sports Premier League from 2pm on Sunday, May 12. Kick-off for both games is at 3pm.
