Finishing in the top half of the table holds a sense of pride and is a critical yardstick to measure a team’s success in a campaign. On top of this, the prize money dolled out by the EPL offers a great deal of motivation. With prize money between the 10th and 11th place teams jumping more than any other position in the table, there is a significant financial incentive to finish in the top half. A financial rewards system designed to keep teams playing until the season’s final whistle keeps the intensity high in the top tier of English football.
