A match of surprising importance to Chelsea's long-term future will be played on the final day of the 2025/26 Premier League season as the Blues travel to meet Sunderland on Sunday.
Chelsea enter the last day of the campaign in eighth, sitting one point behind seventh-placed Brighton, the only team above them mathematically within reach.
While Chelsea will be hoping to finish as high in the standings as possible to give them the best chance of securing European football of some capacity next season, there could also be significant financial implications on all outcomes, both from a revenue standpoint and a rules compliance standpoint.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the weekly schedule.
