Every Premier League team not yet mathematically safe from relegation

A relegation scrap for the ages is upon us, ladies and gentlemen.

Half of the teams in the division aren’t mathematically safe with just four games (five for some) remaining. While it’s almost impossible for a couple to go down, five teams look to be involved in a dogfight that’s destined to go down to the wire.

Here’s an overview of the teams that could still technically get relegated to the second tier.

Current position: 11th
Games played: 34
Points: 40
Chance of getting relegated: <1%

Crystal Palace’s remaining fixtures

The Eagles were in dire straits towards the end of Patrick Vieira’s tenure, and some didn’t fancy old Woy to work much magic after coming out of retirement.

The appointment of Hodgson, however, has proven to be a masterstroke. Only Manchester City, Newcastle and Liverpool have taken more points from their previous six games than Palace which has alleviated any relegation fears.

Hodgson’s Eagles are playing with a south London swagger, and you’d back them to take points away from each of their remaining four games.

Current position: 12th
Games played: 33
Points: 39
Chance of getting relegated: <1%

Chelsea’s remaining fixtures

Chelsea fans have Thomas Tuchel to thank that they aren’t in the middle of the relegation scrap right now.

If the Premier League began when Graham Potter took over, the Blues would be sitting in 18th having picked up just 20 points from 23 games. The arrival of Frank Lampard has not lifted spirits and his side currently look like the poorest in the division.

While relegation remains highly unlikely, it’s hard to envisage Chelsea picking up many points before the season draws to a close.

Current position: 13th
Games played: 34
Points: 39
