Premier League 2023/24: Who has the easier run-in to avoid relegation?
Burnley are probably the best-set promoted team to attack the Premier League this season, but could be in trouble if they find themselves fighting relegation towards the end of the campaign with fixtures against Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham Hotspur.
Luton have an easier run-in on paper, but will need a huge push as well as some strong additions to their squad if they are to stay in the division.
A tricky final-day trip to Arsenal awaits Everton, who will be hoping to be comfortably safe by then and avoid a repeat of their dramatic victory against Bournemouth to confirm survival on the last day of the 2022/23 season.
Below are the last five league fixtures for the teams predicted to battle against relegation to the Championship this season. Will newly-promoted sides Luton, Sheffield United and Burnley stay manage to stay in the top-flight?
