Before we take a look at this season's relegation possibilities, it's important we have a recap of how last season unfolded at the bottom of the league. Rewind to this time last year-ish and Luton were massive favourites for the drop, Burnley boss Vincent Kompany was being linked with jobs at Chelsea and Tottenham and Sheffield United were the yo-yo club that should be better equipped to stay up than they last time they dropped from the league.

None of that played out. Sheffield United sold off their best players and went on to finish bottom with the worst defensive record in Premier League history. Kompany stayed loyal to both Burnley and his coaching philosophy of playing football “the right way” but his side made too many basic errors on their way to an underwhelming 19th placed finish and Luton fought valiantly given their budget but, ultimately, came up short in their battle for survival.

Now, let us shift our attention to the 2024/25 season.

Premier League relegation odds 2024/25 – Latest news

Wolves bottom of the pile

Most people are still talking up Wolves' survival hopes this season with many dubbing them “too good to go down” but they're winless from half a dozen games at the start of the season and they have the worst goal difference in the league having conceded more goals than anyone else. The balance to those stats is the fact they've had a tough start with Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Aston Villa all faced. They go to Brentford next with Man City up after the international break.

Sorry Saints slapped by South Coast rival

If you earned points for possession, Southampton would be safe from relegation this season. The trouble is, you don't. The Saints were miles off it in Monday's game with Bournemouth leaving them sat 19th in the table with just one point from a possible 18 and, worryingly, they've scored the fewest goals in the league despite having decent possession stats. It's what you do with the ball that counts and, right now, Southampton are poor in both boxes.

Palace punished for poor finishing

We've talked up Crystal Palace's chances of getting out of trouble this season citing their attacking players as difference makers. They failed to deliver last time out with Marc Guehi's opening goal proving nothing more than a consolation in defeat to Everton. Palace had 60% of the ball and 17 shots in that game. They say you should worry when you stop creating chances and, by that measure, the Eagles should still be okay.

Leicester miss out on shock point at Arsenal

Leicester wouldn't have earmarked a trip to Arsenal as a game in which they'd earn any points but they'll still be gutted at how the game played out. With a bit of fortune and a stroke of genius from two-goal getter James Justin the Foxes came back from 2-0 down to level but two injury time goals against saw them lose 4-2. The manner of the defeat will hurt but there are positives to take. They'll hope the lost point won't come back to haunt them come May.

Toffees still in sticky spot despite first win

Everton have shown glimpses of their quality this season but have faced mental challenges with throwing leads away over the past few weeks. In Dwight McNeil though they've got a player that impacts the final third and last time out a brace from the former Burnley man saw Everton come from behind to beat relegation rival Crystal Palace. They're far from sitting pretty but they are the only side in the bottom six to have won a game; it's a huge weight off their shoulders.

Ipswich unbeaten in four

Putting together a four match unbeaten run in the Premier League is no mean feat for a side likely to be in a relegation battle but Ipswich find themselves in that position after going undefeated throughout September. It means the only game they've lost this season have been to Man City and Liverpool, however, they are yet to win a game so there is still work to do. Their performance against Aston Villa on Sunday was, probably, their best showing of the season though.

Premier League relegation tricast betting – Selected odds

Here are the odds for the specific order of the bottom three.

Relegation Tricast for 2024/25

  • 20th, Southampton
  • 19th, Leicester
  • 18th, Ipswich

The general consensus amongst pundits is that the newly promoted clubs will struggle to maintain their status in the top flight come May. Right now, it's perhaps hard to argue against any of that. As for the order, Southampton are a good football team but a) give cheap goals away and b) don't look like they've got enough goals in the side. Leicester, whilst no longer facing a points deduction, have hardly set the world alight during the first weeks of the season whilst Ipswich look to best best equipped to keep their heads above water – largely owing to Kieran McKenna, who is very highly rated as a coach, and their transfer dealings. That being said, they've gone back to back from League One in the last two seasons so this leap could prove just a tad too big especially as they look to bed in a dozen new faces.
