The Premier League standings feature plenty of competition at both the top and bottom of the EPL table. With Arsenal already wrapping up the Premier League title, all eyes are on Tottenham and West Ham as only one club will avoid relegation.
Tottenham is safe for now thanks to a 1-0 lead versus Everton. Additionally, West Ham is tied 0-0 against Leeds. If the results hold, Tottenham would not be relegated, while West Ham would be sent down.
Elsewhere, there are battles at the top of the Premier League standings as teams look to cement their status in the Champions League. As a reminder, the top five teams in the EPL table are guaranteed a Champions League spot this year.
There is a more complicated scenario where the sixth place club will also secure a Champions League spot.
“However, the sixth-placed team would be upgraded to a Champions League spot if Aston Villa drop below Liverpool into fifth place in the final table on Sunday,” PremierLeague.com’s Ben Bloom wrote in a May 21, 2026, story titled, “Race for Europe 2025/26: How it stands ahead of Final Day.”
“This is because, as Europa League winners, Villa wouldn’t need the European Performance Spot that is awarded to the fifth-placed team, so it would drop down to sixth.”
Let’s take a look at the latest Premier League standings.
