Promoted trio keen to avoid fate of predecessors
August 13, 2025
|Bangkok Post
Leeds United, Burnley and Sunderland all return to the Premier League this season with the primary objective of avoiding the fate that has befallen their immediate predecessors.
-
For two successive seasons, the trio of promoted clubs have found the top flight a treacherous transition and failed to survive, tumbling straight back down to the Championship.
Their performance last season offered evidence of a growing gap between the Premier League and second-tier as Leicester City, Ipswich Town and Southampton were all relegated weeks before the end of the campaign.
Saints narrowly avoided the ignominy of a record low total of points in a Premier League season.
At the end of the 2023-24 season, it was Luton Town, Burnley and Sheffield United who were relegated after a single season in the top flight.
Burnley have returned in haste, however, finishing second behind Leeds United last season as they conceded a Championship record-low 16 goals.
