There is still plenty at stake on the pitch heading into the final few weeks of the season.
And off the pitch, clubs know that the higher they finish in the Premier League table, the more money they will receive in ‘merit payments’.
This money is split from a pot and is paid to each club depending on where they finish in the table - meaning although some clubs may not have too much to play for on the face of it, every win and defeat could impact their bank balance come the end of the campaign.
Here, we take a look at every Premier League club’s potential finishing positions between now and the end of the season and see how much money from merit payments - based on last season’s figures.
