Premier League relegation odds: Clarets backed to go down
Burnley have replaced Sunderland as favourites to be relegated from the Premier League in the 2025-26 season
www.telegraph.co.ukHere are the latest Premier League relegation odds from several bookmakers as of May 2026, based on recent updates.
Key takeaways
- West Ham United are currently the favorites to be relegated, with odds around 1/6 to 1/7 in most bookmakers’ markets, reflecting their precarious position with only a few games left.[1][5]
- Other teams still at risk include Tottenham Hotspur (but with improving form reducing their danger), Leeds United, Nottingham Forest, and Crystal Palace, as odds shift with each result late in the season.[3][1]
- Relegation trackers and aggregate editors show Wolves and Burnley frequently cited among the safer bets to be relegated, though context varies by source and date.[2][4]
Recent snapshots from notable outlets
- Ladbrokes: West Ham as 1/7 to go down, with Tottenham 9/2 as the next most likely to be relegated among the remaining contenders.[1]
- Coral: Wolves, Burnley, and West Ham among favourites for relegation in 2025/26, indicating the three traditional bottom contenders at that time.[2]
- Telegraph: Burnley listed among the top candidates for relegation early in 2025/26, with Sunderland, Leeds also in the mix depending on the week.[3]
Notes and interpretation
- Relegation odds shift frequently based on recent results, injuries, and fixture difficulty. If you’re betting or planning, it’s wise to monitor live quotes from multiple bookmakers and consider the latest match-day impacts (e.g., final-week fixtures, head-to-head significance, and remaining home/away balances).[7][10][1]
- If you want, I can compile a current, side-by-side table of odds from several bookmakers for the exact teams in the bottom half right now, and include a short chart showing how those odds have moved over the last 4–6 weeks. For this, I’d pull the latest figures from multiple outlets and generate a quick visualization.[5][9][7]
