It’s busy at the top, but it’s even busier down at the bottom. The fight for Premier League survival is now a three-horse race between Leeds, Burnley and Everton.Watford and Norwich have already gone down, but the final relegation place is still to be decided. If Leeds lose at home to Brighton and other results go against them – the Yorkshire club would be confirmed as relegated.👊 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲!#LUFC x @SkylightsYRA pic.twitter.com/7iWbMBw5jN— Leeds United (@LUFC) May 15, 2022 Leeds’ terrible -38 goal difference makes them the number one candidates to drop. Recent wins under Jesse Marsch against Norwich, Wolves and Watford following Marcelo Bielsa’s departure appeared to lift them out of trouble, but they were quickly drawn back into the mire. Sunday’s 2-1 loss at Arsenal, during which Luke Ayling was sent off, saw them slip into the relegation zone for the first time since October and alarm bells rang louder still after Wednesday night’s 3-0 home defeat to Chelsea when they shot themselves in the foot again with another first-half dismissal, this time for Dan James.A drone shot of the #THFC stadium before today’s lunchtime clash against Burnley pic.twitter.com/TvM36MBTak— The Spurs Web (@thespursweb) May 15, 2022 Only just above them in the table is Burnley. Sean Dyche’s departure last month came as a surprise to many, but interim boss Mike Jackson presided over a draw and three victories in his first four games before Saturday’s 3-1 home defeat by Aston Villa. Currently outside the bottom three only by virtue of goal difference – and that advantage over Leeds could yet prove invaluable – they travel to top-four hopefuls Tottenham and top-10-chasing Aston Villa in their next two fixtures before Newcastle head for Turf Moor.👍 @Everton have earned 10 points from their last four home matches, as many as in their previous 11#EVEBRE pic.twitter.com/8Q8W8MogSn— Premier League (@premierleague) May 15, 2022 Frank Lampard’s Everton looked to be in serious trouble as they approached a difficult run of fixtures a month ago, but wins over Manchester United, Chelsea and Leicester signalled a return to form and piled the pressure on the teams around them before securing another point in a goalless draw at Watford in midweek. They remain in the thick of the battle, but have given themselves a fighting chance and still have a game in hand on Leeds.PREMIER LEAGUE – Round 37Sunday14.00: (1.38) Tottenham (5.00) Burnley (9.00)16.00: (2.14) Aston Villa (3.50) Crystal Palace (3.80)16.00: (2.75) Leeds (3.30) Brighton (2.60)16.00: (3.90) Watford (3.50) Leicester (1.99)16.00: (1.50) Wolverhampton (4.20) Norwich (7.50)16.00: (7.75) West Ham (5.00) Man.City (1.41)18.30: (2.09) Everton (3.40) Brentford (3.70)Monday22.00: (4.10) Newcastle (3.50) Arsenal (1.94)Tuesday21.45: (8.00) Southampton (5.10) Liverpool (1.42)***odds are subject to change
