Premier League relegation special: With just three points separating seven teams at the bottom, who will drop into the Championship in May?

So much attention is given to the top end of the Premier League that it is easy to ignore the battle brewing at the bottom.

For any of the teams who sit below 12th in the table, dropping out of the division and into the Championship remains a realistic prospect with just nine games of the campaign to go.

There is a gap of only three points between 19th and 13th, a figure that could quite easily be overhauled with the right run of results.

Only one side really seems nailed on for a place in the second tier next campaign.
