Premier League table 2025-26: relegation race
Wolves and Burnley are both relegated. The third drop spot runs between Tottenham (17th, 38 points) and West Ham (18th, 36 points) on Sunday May 24. A point for Tottenham at home to Everton would secure Premier League survival unless West Ham manages to overturn Spurs’s superior goal difference. The clean path for West Ham survival is to beat Leeds AND Tottenham to lose at home to Everton, which would put the Hammers on 39 to Spurs’s 38. A win for Spurs guarantees safety regardless of what goes on at the London Stadium. Leeds (47), Crystal Palace (45) and Nottingham Forest (43) are all mathematically safe.
| Pos | Team | P | Pts | GD | Final day |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 14 | Leeds United | 37 | 47 | -4 | West Ham (A) |
| 15 | Crystal Palace | 37 | 45 | -9 | Arsenal (H) |
| 16 | Nottingham Forest | 37 | 43 | -3 | Bournemouth (H) |
| 17 | Tottenham | 37 | 38 | -10 | Everton (H) |
| 18 | West Ham United | 37 | 36 | -22 | Leeds (H) |
| 19 | Burnley | 37 | 21 | -37 | Wolves (H) |
| 20 | Wolves | 37 | 19 | -41 | Burnley (A) |
