There's a pattern emerging in the Premier League.

For the past two seasons the three teams that have come up from the Championship have gone straight back down.

Will newly-promoted Burnley, Leeds and Sunderland buck the trend this term?

BBC Sport looks into the stats surrounding relegation and rates each of the new boys' chances.

Points-wise, very bad.

Since 1996-97, when three promoted sides started playing in a 38-game Premier League season they have averaged 113 points between them.

In 2023-24, Burnley, Luton and Sheffield United set a record-low tally when they stumbled to a collective 66 points.
