The 2022/2023 English Premier League season is drawing to a close. The last round of the current competition will be played at the end of May. The question of the championship is not yet closed, but the chances of a trophy are better for Manchester City. At the same time, the struggle for the right to remain in the elite football championship of England promises to be hot.
Southampton has only a mathematical chance of salvation, but given the calendar, the Saints are very likely to start next season in the Championship. The list of clubs that can also be relegated includes four teams, namely: Nottingham Forest, Everton, Leicester and Leeds.
Nottingham Forest
In late April and early May, the Clever Trees were able to win home victories over Brighton and Southampton. This helped Steve Cooper’s guys break away from the relegation zone. By the 35th round, the Foresters were ahead of 18th Leicester and 19th Leeds by three points. It is worth noting that the Reds have a rather weak attack, but in the spring period the team began to score more goals. So the chances of “forest” to be saved are quite good.
In the remaining three rounds, Nottingham Forest will face Chelsea and Crystal Palace away, as well as Arsenal at home. The calendar for “dexterous trees” is quite difficult. Although to get hold of points with unmotivated London “aristocrats” and “glaziers” “foresters” may well. In general, the whole struggle for a place in the elite for the next season is still ahead for the brainchild of Evangelos Marinakis and Sokratis Kominakis.
Everton
The Butterscotch managed to score four points at the beginning of the May period in the matches with Leicester and Brighton on the road. With the “foxes” the guys of Sean Dyche painted the world, and the “gulls” defeated with a score of 5:1. This allowed them to be ahead of Leicester and Leeds by two points by the 35th round. The Scousers have one of the worst offenses in the league, but lately Seamus Coleman and company have started to score more consistently. The position of the Blues is unenviable, but the team from Liverpool can keep their residence in the Premier League.
In the remaining three rounds, Everton will face Manchester City, Wolverhampton and Bournemouth. It is unlikely that the Blues will be able to score points with the “citizens”, but on the road to fight the “wolves” and “cherries” “toffees” are quite capable. So, if the Liverpool team sets up properly, they will be able to achieve the desired results.
Leicester
The Foxes won the English Premier League in 2015/2016 and finished eighth in the standings last year. Now there’s a high chance that Dean Smith’s guys will go down in class. After 35 league appearances, Leicester were ahead of No. 19 Leeds in tie-breaks and two points behind No. 17 Everton. It is worth noting that City have 8 wins, with 6 draws and 21 defeats. Only Southampton lost more than the brainchild of “King Power IG” in the league.
The Blues will face Liverpool, Newcastle and West Ham in the remaining three games of the season. The calendar is quite heavy. If the Foxes lose to the Merseysiders and the Magpies, but win against the Hammers, this is unlikely to help the team stay out. So the chances of Leicester remaining in the elite of English football are insignificant.
Leeds
The “Peacocks” in the period from the 30th to the 35th round of the Premier League were able to score only one point. As a result, Leeds was inferior to 18th Leicester in additional indicators, and two points behind 17th Everton. It should also be noted that the “whites” have the worst defense in the league, which conceded almost two goals in 90 minutes of playing time. Called to save the inhabitants of “Elland Road” from relegation was Sam Allardyce, who was appointed head coach of the team four rounds before the end of the championship.
The Peacocks will face Newcastle, West Ham and Tottenham in their final three league games. Some of the opponents are without motivation, but are clearly in better shape than the Whites. So the likelihood that Big Sam will save the Peacox from relegation is quite small.
Our forecast
Nottingham Forest and Everton are looking better in terms of play lately. In addition, “taffy” and “slick trees” have a lighter calendar than competitors. So the Reds and Scousers are likely to keep their places in the Premier League. Leicester and Leeds have few games ahead in which these teams can get hold of points. So with a high probability, the “foxes” and “peacocks” will join Southampton and go down to the Championship.
