The Premier League relegation battle is heading towards a dramatic conclusion, with Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United and others still fighting for survival as the final fixtures come into focus.
The battle for survival in the Premier League this season is set to go down to the wire with four games left to play.
Spurs gave themselves some hope with a win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last Premier League game, after Joao Palhinha’s late strike saw the Lilywhites secure all three points.
That victory leaves Tottenham two points adrift of safety, as West Ham United managed a win in their own game against Everton.
Nottingham Forest and Leeds United have more or less pulled clear of the drop zone, with Leeds currently six points clear of 18th place while Forest has a five-point lead over Spurs.
But that is not to say the two sides cannot still be dragged into the relegation fight, leaving everything to play for in the final weeks of the season, and we’ve now compared the fixtures of each.
