Matchday LIVE: Crystal Palace vs Arsenal, Burnley vs Liverpool and cup finals for Juventus & PSG

That's all from tonight's live blog - and what a night it was. PSG and Juventus won a major trophy, Liverpool and West Ham edged closer to Europe and, perhaps most importantly, more supporters returned to stadiums as we take another step towards normality. Until next time&nbsp;👋

Goodbye!

Joe&nbsp;Willock has said he will consider staying at Newcastle permanently after he made Premier League history in Wednesday's 1-0 win over Sheffield United. The 21-year-old became&nbsp;the youngest player in Premier League&nbsp;history to score in six straight matches. And speaking after the game, Willock appeared to open the door to a permanent move from Arsenal. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/arsenals-willock-considering-permanent-newcastle-stay-after/115mqhycinpuf1k0xklvgsi163" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

Arsenal's Willock considering permanent Newcastle stay

Juve winners again

We wondered what the main impact would be of empty stadiums and there you have it - more away wins than home for the first time in English football history. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> 1 - With 13 more away wins (150) than home wins (137) and only 10 matches remaining, the 2020-21 Premier League season is the first campaign in the history of England's top four tiers to see more away wins than home wins. Unprecedented. — OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) <a href="https://twitter.com/OptaJoe/status/1395128786019094534?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 19, 2021</a></blockquote> <script async="async" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The impact of pandemic football

Winner

So Andy Robertson described Sunday as a final, and Jurgen Klopp said tonight's win over Burnley was a semi-final. He told Sky Sports: "It was a semi-final. We had to win the semi-final and we did. Nothing is decided yet but we improved our position and we have the final. That's what we needed. It's what we deserve because this was a top performance. "You can't give any chance away against Burnley because of the way they play. They wanted to go for our centre-halves but our boys did outstandingly well. "We knew before the game it would be incredibly tough - they had about 3,500 people not on our side. Atmosphere in football is massive. "I thought the boys dealed really well with that. They didn't get distracted - they tried to use it because noise is nice. We played a lot of good football stuff." "We have to make sure we recover quickly. We have a thin squad in some positions. We have to wrap them in cotton wool. I can't wait for the 10,00 fans at Anfield. Nothing is decided - Palace are strong."

'Nothing is decided yet'

Minutes after his departure from West Brom was confirmed, Sam Allardyce released a statement outlining his reasons for stepping down. "West Brom made me a generous offer to stay at The Hawthorns that shows the commitment of an ambitious club. After serious consideration I have decided not to accept that offer," he said. "If I were to stay and achieve promotion next season the expectation would be for me to continue for at least another season and, sadly, that is not a commitment I feel able to make at this stage of my career. "I believe the club now needs stability and continuity and this would, in my opinion, best be provided by a young and ambitious manager who can get us back to where we should be as an established Premier League football club."

Allardyce reveals reasons behind Baggies departure

Liverpool defender says Sunday's final day clash with Crystal Palace is like a cup final as they close in on a Champions League place. "Of course we feed off pressure," he told Sky Sports.&nbsp;"It's a massive club and fans demand results. We have hit form at the right time. Sunday is a final effectively for us, Leicester and Chelsea. "We have given ourselves a chance when a lot of people had written us off. But we need to make sure our performance is of the highest level [against Crystal Palace]."

'We have hit form at the right time'

Some breaking managerial news: West Brom have confirmed that Sam Allardyce will step down at the end of the season. Allardyce replaced Slaven Bilic in December but was unable to save them from the drop -&nbsp;the first Premier League relegation of his managerial career.

That should do it for West Ham too. Jesse Lingard tees up Michail Antonio to seal the win for the Hammers, who will move three points clear in sixth place. The Europa League is calling!

Antonio for the Hammers!

Liverpool are coasting now. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has powered one in from the inside the area&nbsp;to wrap up the win and boost their goal difference in the race for a top four. The Reds are in the driving seat for the Champions League!

3-0 Liverpool!

The Hammers have turned it around!&nbsp;Angelo Ogbonna heads home Aaron Creswell's&nbsp;corner from close range. David Moyes' side are closing in on a European place!

Some news to emerge from one of the earlier Premier League games - Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo says Raul Jimenez will not be fit enough to play in the club's final Premier League game of the season against Manchester United on Sunday.

All to play for

Here are the half-time scores in the two late Premier League games: Burnley 0-1 Liverpool West Brom 1-1 West Ham

Half-time

VAR check complete

Another goal just before half-time, this time at the Hawthorns and it's West Ham who level! Tomas Soucek has tapped home from close range - though there is going to be a VAR check.

West Ham level!

Roberto Firmino breaks the deadlock just before half-time! The ball is played across the box from the left by Andy Robertson&nbsp;and Firmino's effort has too much power for goalkeeper Norris. Liverpool into the top four as it stands!

Matheus Pereira&nbsp;has been awarded West Brom's opening goal as his corner kick was on target. Will he be a target for Premier League sides this summer? <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> 17 - Matheus Pereira has been directly involved in 17 goals in the Premier League this season (11 goals, six assists); the most by a West Brom player in a single campaign since Romelu Lukaku in 2012-13 (21).

Crystal Palace 1-3 Arsenal Two late goals seal all three points for the Gunners, who keep their European hopes alive. Not the result Roy Hodgson in what is his final home game in charge of Crystal Palace.

Full time ⏰

And that is that. Nicolas Pepe skips into the area, evades two Crystal Palace defenders and strokes the ball low into the corner for his second and Arsenal's third!

3-1 Arsenal!

Gabriel Martinelli has won it in stoppage time for the Gunners!! The Brazilian is there at the far post to meet Odegaard's cross and scramble the ball home. There was a nervy VAR check for offside and handball but the goal is given!

Goal for Arsenal!!

That didn't take long - and what a strike it is.&nbsp;Ruslan Malinovskyi&nbsp;collects the ball on the edge of the box and smashes it into the roof of the net to bring Atalanta level!

Atalanta level!

The goals are flying in now - this time it is at the Hawthorns as West Brom take the lead against West Ham. Matheus Pereira's inswinging corner is flicked into his own net by Tomas Soucek. A huge blow to West Ham's European hopes!

Goal for West Brom!

"To see that happen, in such a freak situation, it is almost impossible to understand how it happened," he told BT Sport.&nbsp; "Then for it to be such a serious injury, we are all absolutely devastated for Eze. He is a strong young man, resilient and he will come back stronger.”

That's superb technique from&nbsp;Morgan Gibbs-White who fires in a first-time volley from 25 yards that Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford does well to palm away. Things warming up at Goodison....

Great save! 🔥

Dean Smith is absolutely RAGING on the touchline! Ollie Watkins was clattered by Hugo Lloris as he looked to run onto a through ball. The incident was reviewed by VAR but nothing was given!

VAR check...no penalty!

And what a strike it is by Steven&nbsp;Bergwijn! The Dutchman wins the ball outside the area, forces his way into the box before rifling home an unstoppable volley beyond Emi Martinez! <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-partner="tweetdeck"> STEVIEEEEE!!! ⚪ <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/THFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#THFC</a> 1-0 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/AVFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#AVFC</a> 🟣 <a href="https://t.co/QPvacH4eG9">pic.twitter.com/QPvacH4eG9</a> — Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) <a href="https://twitter.com/SpursOfficial/status/1395063785510014981?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 19, 2021</a></blockquote> <script async="async" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Crystal Palace also make two changes as Vicente Guiata and James Tomkins come in for Jack Butland and&nbsp;Eberechi Eze - who has reportedly suffered an Achilles injury that could keep him out for several months.

Pepe back for Gunners

We are under way at Goodison Park, St James' Park and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium! ⚽ ⚽ ⚽

Let's go...

..in the first three Premier League games this evening as the teams come out to real cheers from real fans - you love to see it! 👏👏👏

Kick-off imminent..

Tonight will be Roy Hodgson's final home game as Crystal Palace manager after it was&nbsp;revealed earlier this week that he will be stepping down at the end of the season. The former England boss began his managerial career 45 years ago - though he says he isn't ready to officially retire just yet! <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-partner="tweetdeck"> The boss is in the building 🙌<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CPFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#CPFC</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CRYARS?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#CRYARS</a> <a href="https://t.co/YivbBnAPxf">pic.twitter.com/YivbBnAPxf</a> — Crystal Palace F.C.

Hodgson's farewell

Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti was asked why James Rodriguez is missing for the Toffees this evening. "James is out because he was a little bit tired," said the Italian.&nbsp;"He didn’t play, he was out, then he played against Sheffield, we prefer not to take a risk."

Ancelotti confirms reason for James absence

Short answer: very <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> 95 - Since their promotion in 2018-19, Aston Villa boast a 35%-win rate in Premier League games with Jack Grealish in the starting XI, compared to just 19% without him. Indeed, this is the Englishman's first start since mid-February against Brighton - 95 days ago.

Just how important is Grealish to Villa?

Newcastle boss Steve Bruce names an unchanged side from the one beaten 4-3 by champions Manchester City in a thriller at St James' Park on Friday. Teenager&nbsp;Daniel Jebbison keeps his place in the Sheffield United side after he scored the winner on his first senior start against Everton on Sunday. The only change sees&nbsp;&nbsp;Jayden Bogle come&nbsp;in for George Baldock. Newcastle:&nbsp;Dubravka, Dummett, Krafth, Fernendez, Shelvey, Ritchie, Murphy, Almiron, Willock, Joelinton, Saint-Maximim.
