They are handed a 44.90% chance of a first-ever relegation from the Premier League. <\/p>\n<p>          Assuming West Ham stay up, would you rather see Arsenal bottle the league or Tottenham go down? \ud83e\udd14 <\/p>\n<p class=\"grv-talking-point__subtitle\">Tell us why in the comments\u2026 \ud83d\udc47<\/p>\n<p>     <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"716\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/GettyImages-2263000219-1024x716.jpg\" alt=\"Viktor Gyoekeres of Arsenal scores his team's fourth goal during the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium\" class=\"wp-image-310698\" \/>Photo by David Price\/Arsenal FC via Getty Images       <\/p>\n<p>Given the rivalry between these two teams, they are the ones upon which many fans will focus.  <\/p>\n<p>Still, there\u2019s still a very real chance that Nottingham Forest or Leeds go down instead. <\/p>\n<p>Forest are a point ahead of the Irons after they drew with Aston Villa on Sunday.
