Leeds United suffered their second heaviest of the season through Saturday’s hosting of Arsenal - leading to a Whites change in the bookies’ relegation odds and new predicted final Premier League table.

Daniel Farke’s Whites lined up for the visit of title-favourites Arsenal having lost just one of their last ten league games but two goals in each half gave Mikel Arteta’s Gunners a comfortable 4-0 success.

The defeat left fifth-bottom Leeds six points clear of the relegation zone but offering third-bottom West Ham the chance to close in with Saturday’s teatime kick-off at Chelsea.

Seeking a third consecutive victory, the Hammers raced into a 2-0 lead but Chelsea pulled off a brilliant comeback to ultimately record a 3-2 victory in a crushing new blow for the Irons.

Nevertheless, Leeds now run the risk of dropping below fourth-bottom Nottingham Forest who are just one point behind the Whites but with Sunday’s hosting of 15th-placed Palace representing a game in hand.

Palace themselves are only two points ahead of Leeds who are also just two points adrift of 14th-placed Tottenham Hotspur who host title-chasing Manchester City on Sunday.

The picture has changed and so too have the bookies’ relegation odds and predicted final table based on those. Here, using title odds for sides expected to finish in the top half, is the full new rundown from top to bottom.
