Predict the Premier League relegation race as West Ham, Leeds United and Everton face run-in

The final day of the Premier League season is fast approaching with just eight games left for West Ham United to make sure they avoid relegation.

It has been a disappointing campaign for the Hammers domestically, with David Moyes side falling well short of a top seven finish they managed to achieve in the past two years. After a 2-2 draw against league leaders Arsenal on Sunday, the Irons currently sit 15th in the table.

They do have the advantage of a game in-hand over their nearest rivals, although that is against a Manchester City who at the moment are unbeaten in their last 14 matches, winning 12 of them, as close in on the Gunners in the race for the Premier League title.

At present, the Hammers are only four points clear of the relegation zone and only eight points ahead of the league’s bottom side Southampton. Leicester City and Nottingham Forest are stuck in the drop zone with Saints but there is bound to be more twists and turns in the battle to avoid relegation in the weeks to come.

Sean Dyche’s Everton are clinging on to the last survival spot by goal difference. The Toffees are level on 27 points with 18th-placed Nottingham Forest, whereas Leeds United are just two points ahead in 16th.

Bournemouth (14th), Wolverhampton Wanderers (13th) and Crystal Palace (12th) picked up huge wins at the weekend that boosted their chances of survival, but all three sides won’t consider themselves safe just yet.

So, who will be relegated? With seven gameweeks left it is almost too close to call, but you can forecast what the final table will look like with our Premier League Results Predictor widget above.
