Premier League games: final 2025/26 table, last verified score, and next confirmed fixtures
As of May 28, 2026, the Premier League season is over. This is a latest verified games-and-scores update, not a live matchday tracker: football-data.org has the final table, Goal.com has the Matchday 35 score snapshot, and the next confirmed Premier League-linked fixtures are Sunderland’s summer games.
How the season finished
football-data.org confirms Arsenal FC finished first on 85 points with a goal difference of +44, and Manchester City FC were second on 78 points with +42. One on-site season record shows a different Arsenal win-draw-loss split, so the settled numbers here are the final position, points and goal difference from football-data.org.
| Position | Team | Played | Goal Difference | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Arsenal FC | 38 | +44 | 85 |
| 2 | Manchester City FC | 38 | +42 | 78 |
| 3 | Manchester United FC | 38 | 71 | |
| 4 | Aston Villa FC | 38 | 65 | |
| 5 | Liverpool FC | 38 | 60 | |
| 6 | AFC Bournemouth | 38 | 57 | |
| 7 | Sunderland AFC | 38 | 54 | |
| 8 | Brighton & Hove Albion FC | 38 | 53 | |
| 9 | Brentford FC | 38 | 53 | |
| 10 | Chelsea FC | 38 | 52 |
The top 10 closes with Manchester United FC on 71 points, Aston Villa FC on 65, Liverpool FC on 60, and Bournemouth, Sunderland, Brighton, Brentford and Chelsea rounding out the places from sixth to 10th. The season is done; the useful context now is the final table, the last verified score snapshot, and what is scheduled next.
Last verified score that mattered
Goal.com’s Matchday 35 live scores/report notes say Manchester City drew 3-3 with Everton. Erling Haaland scored, and Jérémy Doku added two late goals.
That same snapshot had City on 71 points with one game in hand, which is why it sits apart from the final football-data.org table showing 78 points and second place.
| Match/Context | Score | Key scorers or notes | Source/publication | Date context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Manchester City vs Everton | 3-3 | Haaland scored; Doku added two late goals; City were on 71 points with one game in hand | Goal.com | Matchday 35 snapshot in the 2025/26 run-in |
