In the struggle at the bottom of the table, Wolves and Burnley appear nearly destined for relegation unless a miraculous turnaround occurs. This leaves one remaining spot likely to be filled by either Leeds, Tottenham, Nottingham Forest, or West Ham.
Leeds currently holds the advantage with the most points, and their schedule looks the most favorable—facing only one top-six team, Manchester United on April 13, along with home fixtures against both teams currently in the relegation zone.
On the other hand, West Ham seems the most at risk of relegation, sitting in the bottom three and facing the toughest schedule among the contenders.
However, Tottenham and Nottingham Forest fans have reasons to worry, as West Ham’s performance has significantly improved under Nuno Espirito Santo recently. In fact, only four Premier League teams have garnered more points (14) over the past eight matches, and their expected goal difference ranks higher than several competitors, indicating that their recent success is not purely coincidental.
