For many, the relegation battle comes down to West Ham United against Tottenham Hotspur.
Assuming that Wolves and Burnley are already down, there is only one remaining spot at the foot of the Premier League table.
Nottingham Forest and Leeds are also in the battle, but West Ham and Spurs are slight favourites for relegation heading into the proverbial business end of the Premier League season.

Spurs are a point above their London rivals but few would doubt that they are in a total crisis right now. West Ham, meanwhile, have much more momentum.
A win over Wolves next month would lift the Hammers out of the relegation zone for a few hours at least, but pundit Simon Jordan doesn’t think Nuno Espirito Santo’s side will do enough to beat the drop.
He does, however, say that Forest or Spurs being relegated would be a much bigger story.
Jordan thinks Spurs are a bigger club and that Forest chaos is more interesting
Speaking on talkSPORT, co-host Jim White asked Jordan if he still expected West Ham to get relegated.
MORE WEST HAM STORIES
The former Crystal Palace owner said: “I do.
“Not because I want them to as West Ham fans seem to be alighting upon.
“If anything, if you want a media story, you want Forest or Spurs to go down and West Ham stay up because if Forest go down and West Ham stay up, it’s all about [Evangelos] Marinakis and Nuno Espirito Santo.
“If Spurs go down, it’s a huge story because you’ve got rid of Daniel Levy, you’ve got this huge stadium, this massive football club, so there’s much more interest in that than West Ham going down.”
Jordan probably isn’t wrong when talking about the landscape beyond the bubble here in east London.
Still, there’s little doubt that relegation from the Premier League only a few years after European success would still be a huge story and a painful one for supporters who have seen their club mismanaged every step of the way since that night in Prague.
The idea of the London Stadium, for all its obvious faults, could host Championship games next season is a major concern.
Spurs being relegated would have more of global interest, while Forest succumbing to it would allow people to further criticise the controversial Evangelos Marinakis.
Hopefully, West Ham can be the driving force in generating such an outcome.
