Tottenham and West Ham Relegation Battle: Final Day Permutations
Spurs and Hammers Relegation Permutations on Final Day

The Premier League relegation battle will be decided on the final day with Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United battling to avoid the drop.

Spurs had the chance to seal their safety with a game to spare, but were beaten 2-1 by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

One point would, barring a mighty goal difference swing, be enough for Roberto De Zerbi’s side, with both they and their relegation rivals at home on the final day.

Tottenham host Everton while West Ham take on Leeds at the London Stadium with a thrilling battle set to go to the wire.

With Wolves and Burnley both relegated, here are the permutations.

Tottenham Hotspur

Position: 17th | Played: 37 | Points: 38 | GD: -10

Remaining fixtures: 24 May - Everton (H)

One point would surely do for Spurs now, their goal difference 13 better than that of West Ham with a game to go. Everton have little to play for – though David Moyes may wish to keep his former club up.

De Zerbi expects the relegation battle to go down to the ‘last minute’.

West Ham United

Position: 18th | Played: 37 | Points: 36 | GD: -22

Remaining fixtures: 24 May - Leeds (H)

There is just one game to come for West Ham, though they are, at least, not relegated before they play it. West Ham will have to win against Leeds to have any hope; if Spurs take a point, it will require a goal difference swing that is surely beyond Nuno Espirito Santo’s side.
