If anything has caught the eye this season in the Premier League, it has undoubtedly been Erling Haaland's arrival at Manchester City. The Norwegian was named the Player of the Season and the Young Player of the Season in the same campaign, something that no one has ever achieved before. This is partly thanks to his record-breaking 36 Premier League goals definitely gave his team a helping hand in the title race.

The maths suddenly get more complicated when taking into account draws. If Leeds or Leicester win with Everton drawing, this too would be enough to condemn Dyche's men to the second division.

The Toffees are the best positioned to confirm their safety, having a two point buffer from the drop zone. However, if the Merseyside club lose and one of Leicester or Leeds win, they will be doomed for a season outside the Premier League.

As it stands, Leicester City, Leeds and Everton could all go down, with Leicester and Leeds occupying 18th and 19th spots respectively with 31 points each. Having said that, Leeds are nine goals worse off, making Allardyce's job a whole lot harder.
