The battle for relegation from the Premier League and European qualification is heating up
Winter turns to spring, and the Premier League enters its final sprint. At the finish line of this season, some teams are battling relegation, while others are fighting for European qualification. Burnley and Newcastle United are on these two different fronts, and their fate will be decided in the remaining rounds.
Burnley's fighting spirit is high for relegation
As a promotion horse in the Premier League this season, Burnley have struggled from the start. In the early days of the league, their record was worrying, and they lingered in the relegation zone for a long time. Burnley have finally picked up their spirits and are in surprisingly good form. With seven points from their last eight games, they sit 17th outside the relegation zone, just two points behind the relegation zone. Although the situation is still grim, the hope of relegation is still there.
The whole Burnley team is full of fighting spirits and vowing to fight for relegation. Coach Danse said: "We don't give up easily, every point counts. 'On the pitch, the Burnley players gave their best and showed a tenacious fighting spirit. Kirk, the heart of midfield, led the team with a brilliant performance, while striker Wood was the mainstay of the goal. As long as the current momentum is maintained, Burnley are well placed to avoid relegation in the end.
Newcastle United's European dream shattered away nightmare
Newcastle United's situation is quite different. They currently sit seventh in the table and are just a point away from qualifying for the European places. Newcastle United's away form has been a headache. In their 16 away games this season, they have won just four and drawn two, with the remaining 10 all ending in defeat. It is not uncommon for away points to be dropped, which has undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to their European qualification shock.
The most recent 3-0 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur was the epitome of Newcastle United's away haze. Speaking after the game, coach Halladay said: "It's an inescapable fact that we were disappointing away from home. 'If Newcastle United can't solve their away problems, their European dreams could be shattered. The main squad is still strong, and as long as they win a few points on the remaining away games, European qualification is still in sight.
Relegation and European war on both fronts
Throughout the season, the fortunes of Burnley and Newcastle United have been in the way. As a new recruit, Burnley have been battling relegation and their fighting spirit is impressive. As long as they finally retain their Premier League value, Burnley can prepare for next season.
As for Newcastle United, although they were once in the European places, the haze of away games has cast a shadow over their European dreams. As long as you give your all in the remaining rounds, there is still a chance to qualify for Europe. Whether it's relegation or European competition, both sides will have a desperate battle in the final stages of the season.
