Is this the worst bottom three in Premier League history?
Briefly

Recent trends indicate that newly promoted clubs in the Premier League are facing significant challenges, with all three promoted sides in the 2023-24 season - Leicester City, Southampton, and Ipswich Town - currently sitting at the bottom of the table. This situation may lead to a historic occurrence where all promoted teams face relegation in consecutive seasons. Statistics show that their combined points total is the lowest ever recorded at this stage, raising concerns about the competitiveness of the league and the ability of newly promoted teams to survive.
Surviving in the Premier League is becoming increasingly difficult, with promoted clubs struggling and potentially facing record low points for relegated teams.
Southampton, Ipswich, and Leicester's combined points total is the lowest at this stage for a bottom three in Premier League history.
The last season saw promoted clubs returning to the Championship immediately, highlighting the ongoing struggle faced by new entrants in the Premier League.
If Southampton carry on at this rate, they risk being labeled the worst Premier League team ever, challenging Derby County's historic 11-point record.
