After the 8 rounds of the Premier League, none of the three newly promoted Premier League teams this season are currently in the relegation zone.

Among them, Leeds United has 8 points and Burnley has 7 points, just above the relegation zone. Sunderland has accumulated 14 points, ranking 7th in the Premier League.

All the newly promoted teams in the Premier League in the past two years were relegated, and 6 teams returned to the original route: Luton + Burnley + Sheffield United (23/24), Leicester City + Ipswich + Southampton (24/25).

Next year, can this newly promoted team break the rule of all newly promoted teams in the Premier League being relegated? At present, Sunderland is undoubtedly the best hope, while Leeds United and Burnley have a long way to go.
