'Wolves may have required 40 points to finish 17th in the final Premier League standings this season, but this campaign has been particularly tight with five teams still in the relegation mix ahead of the closing round of fixtures.'
When looking at the final Premier League tables of the last decade, in only two of the ten years has a team needed 39 points or more to survive, with West Ham going down with 42 points in 2003.'
'Meanwhile, in half of the last ten years a team has required no more than 35 points to survive, with 34 points even being enough on three occasions.'
