Bayern v Mainz, Newcastle v Ipswich, Brighton v West Ham, and more: football – live | Football Key events Celtic are Scottish champions!Scottish Premiership: To nobody’s great surprise, Brendan Rodgers has masterminded another title win for Celtic, whose 5-0 thrashing of Dundee United at Tannadice means they win the league for the 55th time in their history. Full time: Chelsea 1-0 EvertonPremier League: Chelsea have done their chances of competing in next season’s Champions League no end of good by beating Everton courtesy of Nicolas Jackson’s first-half strike. They go fourth in the table on goal difference. GOAL! Luton 1-0 Coventry City (Baptiste 90)Championship: On as a substitute, Shandon Baptiste has scored what could be a massive goal for Luton against Coventry. It was a scrappy effort that took a big deflection off a defender who couldn’t sort his feet out but Hatters fans won’t care. A win will take them out of the relegation zone for a couple of hours at least. League Two: Doncaster Rovers are 2-0 up against Bradford City, with Billy Sharp doubling their lead after Tyrick Wright missed a penalty for the Bantams. A win will send Donny up to League One and leave Bradford in the third automatic promotion place. In London, Port Vale are beating AFC Wimbledon 2-0 and will also go unless Bradford can turn things around very quickly and win against Doncaster Rovers. Championship: It remains scoreless in the early kick-off between Luton Town and Coventry City at Kenilworth Road, where both sides are down to 10 men. Coventry’s Josh Dasilva was sent off after 13 minutes, while Luton lost Liam Nash to a red card for foul and abusive language after 68 minutes. League One: There are two early kick-offs to report on in League One, where Leyton Orient are beating Wycombe Wanderers courtesy of Randell Williams’ strike in the 66th minute. In the West Country, Bristol Rovers are losing 1-0 at home to Reading. Should Wycombe lose to Leyton Orient, Wrexham will secure automatic promotion later today with a win over Charlton Athletic. As things stand, Leyton Orient occupy the final playoff spot, while Readingare in seventh place. Defeat for Bristol Rovers will leave them in the relegation zone, level on points with Burton Albion on the other side of the thick black line, having played two games more. Championship: Burnley are thrashing QPR at Loftus Road, where Jeremy Sarmiento has just scored their fourth goal without reply. A win will send Burnley three points clear of Leeds at the top of the table having played one game more. Leeds host Bristol City on Monday night and have a significantly superior goal difference (+10) over Burnley going into their final two games of the season. If Daniel Farke’s side win both they’ll almost certainly be crowned champions. Scottish Premiership: Celtic are firmly on course to win their 55th title, fourth in a row and 13th from the last 14. They currently lead Dundee United 5-0 at Tannadice with over 30 minutes left to play. Nicolas Kuhn and Adam Idah have scored two goals each since Dundee United’s Ryan Strain opened the scoring with an own goal. Today’s Premier League fixturesToday’s Championship fixtures
Promoted: Both Leeds United and Burnley have booked their places in the Premier League, but the Championship title will be decided on the final day of the season. Burnley currently lead QPR 3-0 and will go three points clear at the summit with a win. Leeds don’t play until Monday night, when they host Bristol City at Elland Road. Playoffs: Sheffield United and Sunderland have guaranteed a spot in the playoffs, while the other two places are currently occupied by Bristol City and Coventry City. Middlesbrough, Millwall, Blackburn Rovers and West Brom are all still in with high, low or extremely faint hopes of making the playoffs. Relegation: The relegation battle looks set to go to the final day of the season, with teams from 17th still mathematically able to go down. As things stand, with Luton currently holding Coventry City at Kenilworth Road, the bottom three spots are occupied by Plymouth Argyle, Cardiff City and Derby County.

We’ll keep you up to date on all the action and bring you news of all the top flight goals as they go in on an afternoon when Chelsea and Newcastle can seriously boost – or harm – their hopes of playing Champions League football next season, while Ipswich Town’s all but certain return to the Championship after just one season in the top flight will be confirmed unless they pull off an unlikely victory at St James’ Park.
