Rewriting the negative record! Southampton relegated from the EPL earlier than anyone in history

Southampton is leaving the Premier League. After a defeat to Tottenham in the 31st round match, the "Saints" officially lost their chances of staying in the elite division.

Ivan Jurić, who took charge of the team during the current campaign, failed to change the situation. Southampton has accumulated only 10 points and, with 7 matches remaining in the season, is officially relegated.

Remarkably, the team has set a new negative record for the tournament. Previously, Ipswich (1994/95), Derby (2007/08), Huddersfield (2018/19), and Sheffield United (2020/21) were relegated with 6 rounds to go.

Additionally, Southampton is on the verge of another negative record held by Derby County. In the 2007/08 season, the "Rams" accumulated only 11 points, while the "Saints" currently have 10, with 7 matches still to play.
