Premier League Drama: Relegation & Europe Race!
24 May
Summary
- Arsenal has secured the Premier League title as of May 24, 2026.
- Wolves and Burnley are confirmed relegated; West Ham/Tottenham fight to avoid third spot.
- Top six teams vie for Champions League, with sixth place possibly qualifying.
Arsenal has officially secured the Premier League title, following Manchester City's draw. The Gunners will lift the trophy regardless of their final match outcome.
In a stark contrast, the relegation battle is down to the wire. Wolves and Burnley have already been confirmed as relegated teams. Tottenham and West Ham are now locked in a critical fight for survival, with only one able to escape the final relegation spot.
The fight for European qualification is also reaching its climax. The top five teams in the Premier League standings are guaranteed a place in the Champions League. An interesting possibility exists where the sixth-placed team could also secure a Champions League spot.
This potential shift for the sixth-placed team is contingent on Aston Villa's final league position. If Aston Villa drops below Liverpool into fifth place, their Europa League win would mean they wouldn't need the European Performance Spot, allowing it to descend to sixth place.
