One down, another ready to fall. Should Leicester City, a side that hasn’t scored a home league goal since the start of December, somehow fail to beat Premier League champions-elect Liverpool on Sunday their relegation will be confirmed.
Ruud van Nistelrooy’s side will join Southampton with their bags packed and their tickets stamped for an instant return to the Championship. Ipswich Town will shortly follow.
All this has led to the question: is this the worst Premier League bottom three of all time?
That’s the easy bit: yes.
