Where Aston Villa and Wolves sit in final predicted Premier League table - Top 4 finish and relegation battle

Aston Villa are still not completely clear of the Premier League relegation battle but can take a big step with victory over Leicester City in their next fixture while Wolverhampton Wanderers are still competing for a top four finish.

The 2021/22 Premier League season is fast approaching its conclusion with the title race, top four battle and relegation fight all still being contested.

With Manchester City and Liverpool fighting it out for the trophy it’s between Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, Manchester United, West Ham United and Wolves to see who can snap up the other spot which secures qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League.

Wolves have lost ground on their rivals over the past few weeks but are still in with a shout and a win over Burnley on Sunday would bring them a welcome three points.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa need a few more points to mathematically secure their place in the Premier League next season - they are currently 11 points above 18th but could still be clawed back.

That is pretty unlikely though and Steven Gerrard’s side can look above themselves instead and attempt to finish as high up the standings as possible, with a top half finish still a realistic goal for this campaign.

Here is how the Premier League table currently looks based on each teams odds of either winning the title, finishing in the top four, finishing in the top half or being relegated:
