LONDON (AP) — The fight between West Ham and Tottenham to avoid relegation from the Premier League is headed to the final round.
Current Standings
With one game remaining, West Ham is in third-to-last place — the final relegation spot — and two points behind Tottenham. They are the only teams who can go down with already-relegated Wolverhampton and Burnley.
Tottenham has a superior goal difference of 12 compared to West Ham, so is highly likely to remain higher if they finish level on points and it comes to that tiebreaker.
