A huge Leeds United boost has been followed by mixed fortunes for key rivals - and the bookies have now produced their new predicted final Premier League table.
Daniel Farke’s fifth-bottom Whites kicked three points clear of fourth-bottom Nottingham Forest by beating them 3-1 in Friday night’s huge clash under the Elland Road lights, a result which took Leeds nine points clear of the dropzone.
Third-bottom West Ham, though, reduced the gap to Leeds back to six points with a 2-0 win at second-bottom Burnley on Saturday afternoon which also left them just three points behind Forest.
For Leeds, Friday night’s win also took them level on points with both Crystal Palace and Tottenham Hotspur who experienced contrasting fortunes from their weekend games.
Spurs suffered another defeat via a 2-0 loss at Manchester United which left Thomas Frank’s side only ahead of Leeds on goal difference.
Palace , though, then travelled to Brighton on Sunday and finally recorded a first league win of the year as a 1-0 success took them up to 13th place and three points above Leeds who are now directly Spurs in the table. Defeat for Brighton also saw the Seagulls drop to 14th place, just two points above the Whites.
With the weekend’s games now all completed, it’s led to the bookies updating their relegation odds and producing a new predicted final Premier League table based on those odds. Using title odds to determine sides expected to end up in the top half, here is the full new rundown from top to bottom.
