Burnley face relegation from the Premier League if they lose to Manchester City on Wednesday, with Wolves already confirmed for the Championship. The Clarets sit 19th on 20 points, 13 points from safety with five games remaining. A draw against Pep Guardiola's side would delay their fate until at least Saturday.

For Burnley to survive, they would need to win all four remaining games while West Ham lose every match and Tottenham earn no more than two points. Any slip-up by West Ham against Everton or a win for Spurs at Wolves would seal Burnley's fate. Current Opta projections give Burnley a 100% chance of relegation.

Meanwhile, the battle for the other relegation spot intensifies between Nottingham Forest, West Ham, and Spurs. Forest hold a five-point cushion in 18th place, while West Ham sit two points above the drop zone. Tottenham face a 58.33% chance of their first Premier League relegation, while Forest's survival probability stands at 95.62%.
