Newcastle's Premier League Run-In - Every Eventuality For Magpies, Sunderland And Hull

12. Newcastle Win, Hull Win And Sunderland Get At Least One Point - Magpies Survive (By Two Points) As Do Sunderland But Tigers Are Relegated

Newcastle United beat West Ham United Hull City beat Manchester United Sunderland get at least a point from their matches at Arsenal and Chelsea Outcome: Newcastle survive (by two points), Sunderland also stay up, Hull are relegated In this scenario, both North East clubs would survive. Sunderland merely need a point from their two fixtures to guarantee their top-flight safety, while if Newcastle win there is absolutely nothing Hull can do to leapfrog them, regardless of the result at the KC Stadium. Newcastle would finish two points ahead of Hull City, on 39 points compared to the Tigers' 37.
