Spurs up next? Most shocking relegations in EPL history

If they didn't know it beforehand, then Sunday's north London derby seemingly confirmed one thing for those watching on as Tottenham succumbed to Arsenal: Spurs are in a relegation battle. Igor Tudor was supposed to deliver a new-manager bounce after replacing Thomas Frank, but his side looked severely lacking in quality and, perhaps more importantly, belief as they went down 4-1 to the Gunners to leave themselves just four points above the drop zone with 11 matches to play.

Outrageous volley from Rathbone keeps Wrexham in play-off hunt

A rocket from Ollie Rathbone and an impressive finish from Sam Smith saw Wrexham to a 2-0 victory away at Blackburn. It proved to be a happy New Year for the Red Dragons at Ewood Park as they opened 2026 in style. Phil Parkinson’s side have taken maximum points from their last three fixtures in the Championship and remain within sight of the play-off places.

Rob Mac sends message to Wrexham ace after last-gasp equaliser

Rob Mac sent a one-word message to Wrexham star Max Cleworth after he scored a last-minute equaliser against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday afternoon. It seemed almost certain that Phil Parkinson's men would leave the Racecourse Ground empty-handed after falling behind early in the game, but a fortuitous strike from the defender deep into stoppage time helped them salvage a point to maintain their unbeaten run of eight games in the Championship.

Wrexham continue unbeaten un with dramatic late equaliser

Max Cleworth emerged as the saviour for Wrexham as the defender grabbed a dramatic late equaliser to maintain an unbeaten run for Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac's side in the Championship. The hosts fell behind through an early goal from former Barcelona star Eidur Gudjohnsen's son, Andri, and it was only in the final minute of stoppage time that Cleworth found the equaliser to salvage a point for the hosts.

RANKED: The worst EPL title defences of all time

Arne Slot is not only facing an uphill battle to save Liverpool's season, but also his job. That is a sentence no Liverpool supporter would have imagined reading barely six months on from seeing the Dutchman deliver the club's second Premier League title, and yet it is no exaggeration. The Reds have plummeted to 11th in the table after losing six of their first 12 games in the 2025-26 campaign, which leaves them a whopping 11 points behind early pace-setters Arsenal already.
