The Premier League relegation battle is nail-biting right up to the final round.

In the early hours of May 20th, Chelsea defeated Tottenham 2-1 in the 37th round of the Premier League at Stamford Bridge.

Tottenham are not yet safe from relegation.

A draw would have been 99% certain Tottenham would have avoided relegation. However, Roberto De Zerbi's side failed to achieve this against an opponent desperate for a European qualification spot.

The defeat leaves Tottenham still facing the risk of relegation, as they are only two points ahead of West Ham. In the final round, the "Spurs" will have to face Everton, a formidable team managed by David Moyes. Meanwhile, West Ham will host Leeds.

Meanwhile, the home win helped Chelsea temporarily overtake Brentford for eighth place thanks to a better goal difference (7 compared to 3). If they beat Sunderland in the final round, "The Blues" will likely secure a place in the Conference League. A dream scenario could happen for Cole Palmer and his teammates. If Brighton lose to Manchester United, "The Blues" will qualify for the Europa League.

Returning to the match at Stamford Bridge, Tottenham started confidently but conceded a goal to Chelsea in the 18th minute, thanks to a moment of brilliance from Enzo Fenrandez. In the 67th minute, Enzo made his mark again with an assist for Andrey Santos to double the lead.

All Tottenham managed was a consolation goal scored by Richarlison in the 74th minute, stemming from a mistake by Marc Cucurella. However, that wasn't enough to turn the tide for the visitors.
