Blackpool

Birmingham and Blackpool find 39 points not enough - only three times has this been the case!

Birmingham and Blackpool both went down on 39 points, this has only happened in three seasons in the 16 seasons of 20 teams in the PL going back to 1995/96

West Ham United with 42 points in 2002/03 hold the record for most points be a relegated team

This is two more than the next two teams on the list who found 40 insufficient for survival, Bolton Wanderers in 1997/98 and Sunderland the season before 

Best attack meets the worst defence with the defence needing the result! Can Blackpool dent the PL most impressive home record?

Man Utd lead the PL in scoring with 74 goals whilst Blackpool have the worst defensive record with 74 goals conceded 

United are defending a fantastic home record this season with 17 wins and a draw in 18 matches taking 52 points out of a possible 54

They are the top scores at home in the PL with 45 goals and have the meanest defence with just 10 goals conceded

They have not yet conceded a goal in the first half of a PL match at home this season
